I've applied all the changes from Andreas's version pertaining to binary-only 
uploads, so I think I'll let him answer... :-)

The thing is that there is only one version check. There would actually need 
to be one version check per package and architecture. (Each binary package 
can have a version completely different from the source, and each 
architecture can have been rebuilt a different number of times.)

One question is how strict the checks should be. In addition to checking that 
the version is increasing, we might want to check that a binary-only upload 
doesn't change the upstream version of any binary package.

Ideas?
