umh, why?
Then the final tag would point to the old import, when another one
happened in the meantime, and pristine-tar would be buggy (if that one
worked fine).

If the upstream tarball has been repacked it has to have a different
version (also because otherwise the archive software is going to be
crazy).  Why not just calling the tarball cufflinks_2.2.1+ds.orig.tar.xz
and import that?  Then you'd have a different upstream version, and
everything should be happy.
If you're talking about the double repacking (i.e.
3c9d6da6781433b1e47c4fbe9310e64062fe0873 vs
4fe2b2e595b10b8f0fbf95b0c686037163d376c0), then my suggestion is to call
the second one +ds1 instead (i.e., appending a '1').

BTW, "usually" (I don't recall if this is written anywhere clearly),
repacking for non-dfsg reasons (like this one) +ds is used instead of
+dfsg.  But I don't believe anybody cares, anyway :)
