I'm fairly sure this problem doesn't exist even with the old way of using
quilt unless the package is broken.  Lintian has several tests that use
quilt and isn't showing this problem for other packages that use quilt via
debian/rules.

Converting it to 3.0 is one way to fix it, but it shouldn't be necessary;
just using quilt properly should do it.
