That's useful, yes.  I am only asking for the check to be reduced in
scope.  My situation is that I'm using DH_COMPAT 4 and I don't feel
that I should have to version the build-dep, since debhelper 4 is in
not only sarge but woody.

People using DH_COMPAT 5 (or higher, in the future) should still use a
versioned build-dep.  I'm intentionally using DH_COMPAT 4 to make
backporting that much easier, and because I don't think any of the
level-5 changes are useful to me.
