It seems interesting. Some comments:
debian/rules says:
| ifneq (,$(findstring debug,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
| CFLAGS += -g
| endif
This won't work because the upstream Makefile defines CFLAGS in it.
Add
export CFLAGS = -O2
before the ifneq line to control how ./configure defines CFLAGS.
| ifeq (,$(findstring nostrip,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
| INSTALL_PROGRAM += -s
| endif
This is unnecessary because the upstream does not strip the binary
by default and dh_strip does the right thing.
If you use debhelper version 3 or later, it marks every file
in /etc as conffile even if the file is in debian/conffiles.
Having debian/conffiles may cause a duplicated entry of Conffiles:.
