Then I think you should have named the orig.tar.gz differently, since its
different than in the previous version. like xfree86_4.0.1f.orig.tar.gz
I wonder how you got that uploaded, I thought the orig.tar.gz usually get
uploaded (and in in the changes file) only with the initial upload (-1) of
the package.
Anyhow, mostly a cosmetic issue which need not be discussed further on
debian-x.
