Cool.  Must play with diffoscope.  I was vaguely aware of it, but I
don't think I've ever used it.  I imagine it would have made comparing
the old and new packages easier than the ad hoc methods I have been

All pushed.  I made one more change.  The Developer's Reference,
§ 5.6.1, expresses the preference that when new binary packages are
added to a source package, it should be uploaded to experimental, so
I've updated the version and distribution in the change-log entry
accordingly.
