umh, ok, that was a case where you needed to bootstrap ffmpeg, so maybe
using sbuild'd --make-binNMU was not easily accomplished.  Or peraphs
you could have:
    1) sbuild --make-binNMU="Manually built to resolve circular Build-Depends with chromaprint." --binNMU=3 --profile=stage1
    2) upload those binaries somewhere accessible to the buildd (I
       think even uploading them to ports.d.o would have been ok)
    3) schedule a regular binNMU without any build profile (maybe
       through wanna-build, even)

I think that would have brought to the same result (module a higher
binNMU version for the second build), with even less hassle :)

(disclaimer: icbw, I'm not a porter, nor a bootstrapper)
