Is there some clever trick to avoid this? Ha! I'm also running into a similar problem with a package of mine :) (clean needs a patched build.xml; with v1 I would play with some target dependencies to shuffle dh_quilt_(un)patch around, but with v3 and no explicit quilt dependency that does not work -- which would be fine for dpkg-source since it expects _applied_ patches, but I don't want to see what happens with the next svn-upgrade it I have applied patches checked in in trunk ... If that is confusing that's because I'm confused right now :)) So, yes, either someone explains the workflow with patches and svn to us or fixes svn-bp or ...
