Hmm, I'm afraid that I can't reproduce this with tar/1.29b-2.  Perhaps
that's something specific to your environment or filesystem?  I tried
both with dpkg-source and tar and I get no errors/warnings.

There is one file (not two) with \r under Cenon.xcodeproj.  I guess
it's automatically created by XCode (proprietary IDE for Muck OS X) so
I suspect it's never going to be fixed upstream.

I'll repackage the tarball, removing the entire directory, but I'd
like to postpone this for the next upsteam release (4.0.6).  It can't
be uploaded right now because it depends on a new gnustep-gui method
that is available in 0.26, so it'll be after the (forthcoming)
gnustep-gui transition.  (Unless the current version fails to build
with -gui/0.26, of course.)  OK?

I use the opportunity to thank you wholeheartedly for sponsoring
basically all of my uploads recently.

Are there any plans this to be enforced or at least recommended in
Debian distro-wide?  (Just asking out of curiosity.)
