The problem appears to be solved locally with the attached debdiff. Only configure.in and a couple of Makefile.am files are changed, the rest of the files are regenerated.

This doesn't seem to break any packages in the archive, that I can see, so I'll leave this for precise. Please forward this to Debian and upstream.
