The staged 3.2.1 xiphos packaging in git repository managed with dgit
already had all the repacking rules as get-orig-source target in
debian/rules.
I've now bumped this to 3.2.2 and uploaded.
3.2.1 was failing to build from source with gcc4.9, but that is now
resolved in 3.2.2. (Didn't track down exact problem/bug)

Dimitri.
