It looks like this was quietly fixed somewhere between 10.2.5 and 10.6.2, maybe in 10.5.1 by: * dh_install: Optimize some patterns into bulked "cp" calls. This optimization is only applicable in some cases (notably, it is always disabled by --exclude). This actually broke src:linux as we accidentally relied on dh_install breaking at spaces. We'll fix that, but you might want to make the change dependent on compat level in case it breaks other packages. Possibly the change in 10.6.3 does that.
