AFAICT, dh_install has always failed with wildcards which doesn't expand
to anything.

What happens often, however, is that you have C bindings in your
package, which generate *.a files during compilation.

Concerning, the issue of files not compiled on bytecode-only
architectures, there is the possibility (added recently in dh-ocaml) to
prefix some lines of *.install.in files with "OPT: " (with the space),
which will be deleted during the *.install generation process if
ocamlopt is not available.

HTH,
