Well, it actually *is* built and moved inside the package. Otherwise
lintian wouldn't notice the spelling mistake. I do not mind much about
the spelling error but if you think the binary should not be in the
package you should either fix the build system or remove the executable
later (and perhaps set a symlink to the Debian packaged phyml).

This code dates from long ago where I have considered this useful. A
lintian override might do here.

This is a question I forgot to ask. If you consider all this group
stuff as useless we might even drop all the debconf stuff. Probably it
could be regarded as overengeniering for not much use. So feel free to
drop it at all (since you are a real user and know the real needs).
Kind regards
Andreas.
