Thanks for the explanation and I agree on the DFSG and the lowering of
the severity, etc. so thanks for that.

As an aside, whether the code ends up in the binary packages is
irrelevant btw; we are still distributing the source.

However, I am unclear about your intended fix -- upload with an updated
Files-Excluded header or wait for a new tarball that does exclude these
files? I mean, either the Files-Excluded header or the orig tarball is
incorrect at the moment, right..? :)
