You're patching them faster than I can post them. :)

Functionally it looks great. Just a few comments.

I wonder why you chose $gnewsense_dists_regex instead of
$gnewsense_dists. I think it makes more sense to use similar names as
for the Ubuntu code.

Using quilt makes sense in theory, but then we need to rename the
tarball to lintian_2.4.3+squeeze1.orig.tar.gz and dpkg-source doesn't
like that. So far we've kept native packages as native, with a version
postfix of gnewsense1 like other packages.
