 Your definition of ABI is vastly different to mine, apparently.

 Indeed they do, none of those change the Application Binary Interface though.
And, as I would normally presume you'd know, they do affect things like
hampering debugging of code (which, being the -debug package might be kind of
the point).

 As I said I can make the package worse so it passes review (I'll upload a 0.7
package tomorrow), but again I'd like to know how I get this problem with policy
fixed ... so at some point in the future I can unbreak the package.
