I did "apt-get --compile source fileutils" followed by "dpkg -i -G
fileutils_4.0-4_i386.deb" (i.e., install the newly created .deb file).
Afterwards, "apt-get -s dist-upgrade" tells me that apt still would like to
"Inst fileutils". (According to the ...unstable_main_binary-i386_Packages
file, 4.0-4 is the version that "apt-get install fileutils" would acquire.)
Is this a bug, or a feature? If a feature, is this discussed anywhere
in the documentation?

Feature, and I don't think it is well documented. The end result is that
APT can differentiate between some 'same version different compiles'
situations and in that case it 'upgrades' to the version in the archive
which is presumably newer.
If this is undesired there are two options:
1) Hold
2) Recompile and change the version number like you are supposed to
