OK, after a bunch of fumbling around, i seem to have gotten the repo
i'm using in shape to where i can use svn-buildpackage to create the
.deb. Could you update to it and see if it works for you?

I've also committed the changes that leave me with only 4 build
warnings (these would go upstream, hopefully, but could also be
released with a new debian revision if you think that's preferable).
It's not clear to me if there's a nifty way to coax a package
maintained with svn-buildpackage into using dpatch or quilt -- It
always feels wrong to commit raw diffs to a revision control system
(though i've done it before), and it seems like a tool like
svn-buildpackage could manipulate its internal diffs to produce
something reasonable somehow. Maybe that's asking too much, though.
I'm open to suggestions and pointers, as usual.
