The second and the third changes above only makes the diff.gz a bit smaller
and avoid having Debian-specific patches distributed in a hidden way.
The first change addresses a more critical issue, because it was impossible
to built the package in a non-fresh source tree.

I think we will follow Isaac's suggestion and change the signature entries
in debian/changelog to something like:
-- Debian Octave Group <pkg-octave-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org> [[date]]
which matches the Maintainer field in debian/control.
I already added:
Local Variables:
debian-changelog-full-name: "Debian Octave Group"
debian-changelog-mailing-address: "pkg-octave-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org"
End:
to the end of debian/changelog and it works with (X)Emacs.
