That didn't work out - the source package landed in contrib again, taking the binary packages libxnvctrl{0,-dev} with it.

 libxnvctrl0     | 331.67-1            | jessie/contrib            | amd64, armhf, i386
 libxnvctrl0     | 331.79-1            | sid/contrib               | amd64
 libxnvctrl0     | 337.19-1            | experimental/contrib      | amd64, armhf, i386
 nvidia-settings | 331.67-1            | jessie/contrib            | source, amd64, armhf, i386
 nvidia-settings | 331.79-1            | sid/contrib               | source, amd64
 nvidia-settings | 337.19-1            | experimental/contrib      | source, amd64, armhf, i386


There are several package in main where this setup is working (e.g. boinc, bumblebee) and at least one that has the source package in main, some arbitrary binary package in main and the binary package with the same name as the source package in contrib: 

(from main Sources:)
Package: matlab-support
Binary: matlab-support, matlab-support-dev
Package-List:
 matlab-support deb contrib/devel optional
 matlab-support-dev deb devel optional

 matlab-support | 0.0.19 | jessie/contrib | all
 matlab-support | 0.0.19 | jessie         | source
 matlab-support | 0.0.19 | sid            | source
 matlab-support | 0.0.19 | sid/contrib    | all

How can we get this fixed?

Or have I been too fast with my upload?

BTW, you can remove nvidia-settings from experimental (maybe tis helps?) ... I'll have to upload a new upstream beta version there anyway and we need to do the move to main, there too.
