I suspect that Chris added the mkdir as the package source is on github and git does not like empty directories (and classes is in the upstream source).
This is not a problem when building in a chroot, but probably is when building in tree:
dpkg-source: info: building jasmin-sable using existing ./jasmin-sable_2.4.0.orig.tar.gz
