LTS contributors IMO)

How come you reused the same version than in unstable? Now we likely have
two files of the same name with different checksums as the main and
security archives are separate... (*)
Also I don't think we should mark our uploads as NMU. The package is
basically co-maintained by the security teams so any upload you can mark
as "Team upload" and use a non-NMU versioning number.
I would have expected "2016.05.09" in unstable and "2016.05.09~deb7u1" in
wheezy-security.
Cheers,
(*) I think dak now has some code to try to avoid this but if you upload
both packages at the same time, it has no chance to detect it AFAIK.
