Some DD told me that debian/compat must be used by default in package : it
allow the use of the env var DH_COMPAT in case of backport : in that case
its value overrides debian/compat value.

You can read this thread too :
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2003/03/msg00002.html

It gives some more explainations.

Cheers,
