I'm mostly worried about breaking any existing packages that use dh or
dh_auto_*, and somehow contain something that breaks if it's changed to
start building multiple times for multiple python versions. (There are
probably few if any such packages, but I do have to worry about backward
compatability when I change dh_auto_*.)
