Is this quite possibly a race condition in patching files? Note that

debian/patches/12_nostrip.dpatch

patches both src/Makefile and src/Makefile.nw. Depending on which of them gets
written to disk first, the problematic rule Makefile: Makefile.nw will be
triggered or not.

Or am I missing some other magic patch that would ensure that Makefile is newer?

Best,
Michael
