source:Version and ancient dpkg-dev
According to the changelog, substvars source:Version is added in
dpkg-dev 1.13.19. A package which uses source:Version in its
debian/control and doesn't set its value explicitly can't be built
with ancient dpkg-dev. The problem is that dpkg-dev in the
build-essential list is dpkg-dev (>= 1.13.5), which is not new enough.
I think the build-essential list should be updated.

If we know when, can we do it right?
