debdiff is displaying it because it's what's in the source package:

adsb@franck:~$ dpkg-source -x ftp/pool/contrib/v/vmware-manager/vmware-manager_0.2.0-1.dsc v-m1
[...]
adsb@franck:~$ dpkg-source -x ftp/pool/contrib/v/vmware-manager/vmware-manager_0.2.0-2.dsc v-m2
[...]
adsb@franck:~$ diff -adNru v-m1 v-m2 | diffstat
[...]

If you think debdiff is buggy, please file appropriate bug reports.  The
