Great that you are looking into this. No need for you to prepare a new tarball: I already (in the form of a cdbs snippet) have a mechanism for autorebuilding tarball by simply listing the files that needs to be stripped. So just resolving the exact files that needs to be stripped from the upstream tarball should be enough to work from. I can work from the files you mentioned already, or if you want to complete your work on this bug yourself I can help you use the cdbs snippet yourself. Which do you prefer? And would you perhaps be interested in helping maintain this package in the future? I would be happy to grant you write access to the VCS used for the packaging, if you are interested.
