Bug#715558: devscripts: drop some entries in control when wrap-and-sorted

Package: devscripts
Version: 2.13.2
Severity: normal

While I used wrap-and-sort on ibus package in preparation, it caused
strange build failure due to lost binary package entry.

Here is what I experienced.

The original debian/control
  Have ibus-gtk
   |
   V
  Run wrap and sort
   |
   V
The generated debian/control
  Missing ibus-gtk   ****** BUG *****
   |
   V
  Add ibus-gtk via editor
   |
   V
The debian/control with ibus-gtk
   |
   V
  Run wrap and sort
   |
   V
The generated debian/control
  Have ibus-gtk
  
I have this problematic debian/control example attached as foo.tar.xz.
You can see what I did there as git record. Also you can try:

 $ tar --xz -xvf foo.tar.xz
 $ cd foo
 $ gitk
 ...
 $ git checkout test
 $ wrap-and-sort
