I lied, we're running a pre-package version (it's proving hard to get
this updated because of having to go through sysadmins) which doesn't
pass the deduped stuff to debcheck (just gives the filename):

  http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/ben.git;a=blob;f=lib/benl_utils.ml;h=4c58182e7e97020188fb5b1a6d1f549167bb0402;hb=78fe204f2a51f362d088f29507b3f372167fb8e4#l33

but later versions do it right, at least by source inspection. So that's
cool. Don't worry about that part of my initial mail. :-)
