Any newly added binary package will cause your package to land in the
NEW queue (regardless of whether the source package itself is new or
not). Source only uploads to NEW aren't allowed likely because it
prevents the ftpmasters from being able to check the newly introduced
binary packages for whatever criteria they have to accept/reject
packages.
