I did.  Doing

  sbuild --source --force-orig-source

got foo build 2.0, Debian version 2.
 
The upload looked scary

$ dput ../foo_2.0-2_amd64.changes
Trying to upload package to ftp-master (ftp.upload.debian.org)
Package includes an .orig.tar.gz file although the debian revision suggests
that it might not be required. Multiple uploads of the .orig.tar.gz may be
rejected by the upload queue management software.
Uploading to ftp-master (via ftp to ftp.upload.debian.org):
  Uploading foo_2.0-2.dsc: done.
  Uploading foo_2.0.orig.tar.gz: done.
  Uploading foo_2.0-2.debian.tar.xz: done.
  Uploading foo-headless_2.0-2_all.deb: done.
  Uploading foo_2.0-2_all.deb: done.
  Uploading foo_2.0-2_amd64.buildinfo: done.
  Uploading foo_2.0-2_amd64.changes: done.
Successfully uploaded packages.
$

But that was fine, there was no reject.  Foo got accepted.

Another  by the way:

   foo_source.changes and  foo_armhf.changes

Both were in my directory, I might have been checking the wrong one.
Luckly I got an off-list advice on it. Now sharing that advice:

   Check the correct  .changes
