which original value?  Could you be a bit more verbose?

As far as I can tell, debian/files is in the orig tarball.  It gets
cleaned in the clean: rule by dh_clean early during the build process
and then does not hurt anymore.  dpkg-source then notices that it got
removed and excempts it from the .diff.gz.

Which part of policy are you referring to, exactly?
