No gain at all. I was using debian sources before I install debian: just
ignore the debian directory. A few extra bytes in the patch is the only
penalty for keeping it there.
That's for users of course, I can see it's a problem for upstream
maintainers, but they ought to get patches emailed by the debian developers,
so shouldn't need to look at our .diff.gz files.
