I can't speak for the Debian packages, but I have built tcpd for BSDI.
There is a Makefile option that chooses which rules behaviour to use by
default. So, it would seem that someone changed that option between
1.3.0 and 1.3.1.
However, I think you can make either set of rules work by supplying some
config options - not 100% sure on this since I don't have the man page
in front of me.
