Just chipping in that I have just encountered this exact bug as reported by RafaĆ Roncoszek on an Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 x64 server I admin. Was initially very concerned to see a critical system binary failing a debsums check but the md5sum's of the failing binary and the updated binary via a 'apt-get install dpkg --reinstall' exactly match those provided in this bug report.
While I agree this isn't a security issue, I do consider it a fairly severe bug when incorrect/unexpected versions of system binaries are being installed and in turn causing simple auditing tools to report issues with the installation.
