You chose to use dh_autoreconf, apparently because it seems easier to 
you than what I propose as the most elegant approach I am aware of.

Personally I do not like dh_autoreconf.  One reason is its (arguable) 
affect on backporting.  Another is its too simple CDBS integration.

IOhannes seem to now realize some limitations in that CDBS integration.  
I cannot magically make those go away.  I suggest to file a bugreport 
against dh_autoreconf and not use it for now.

But that's just a suggestion - good luck with your adventure :-)
