No, there seems to be something flaky with the cleanups.

gbp-clone --pristine-tar ssh://racke@git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/sympa
cd sympa
git buildpackage

Result:
  dpkg-source -i -I --after-build sympa
dpkg-source: info: using options from sympa/debian/source/local-options: --unapply-patches --abort-on-upstream-changes
dpkg-source: info: unapplying 2006_force_removal_po_stamp_files.patch
dpkg-source: error: LC_ALL=C patch -R -t -N -p1 -u -V never -g0 -E --no-backup-if-mismatch < sympa/debian/patches/2006_force_removal_po_stamp_files.patch gave error exit status 1
The next patch, when reversed, would create the file po-wwsympa/stamp-po,
which already exists!  Skipping patch.
