Yup, but I agree with Henrique that mentors would've been the right
list, anyway.

The dh-exec-filter manpage should help. I assume you want something like:
debian/install:
#! /usr/bin/dh-exec
[!kfreebsd-any] debian/some-linux-only-file /usr/lib/my-package
A code search [1] showed that syslog-ng does this, so that package might
be worth looking at.
