Yes it's a gbp pq bug: https://bugs.debian.org/785274
The support improved over time in the last years, but it's still not
great, as that bug documents.

I would totally welcome this.  Really with gbp the use of pq is not
mandatory at all, as after all the output are always quit patches.  Sure
if somebody uses pq and somebody else doesn't it would end up with some
diff noise due to the import/export, but imho nothing worth concerning
about.
