Thanks for looking into the source. I skipped this after my rebuild had
no errors, but perhaps the toolchain has changed inbetween to produce
empty dependency_libs, so the sed becomes a no-op.

Two bugs filed:

http://bugs.debian.org/688288
guile-1.6: modifies *.la after calling dh_md5sums, resulting in
md5sum-mismatch lintian error

http://bugs.debian.org/688300
ftp.debian.org: please reject packages with md5sum-mismatch lintian error
