The Debian Policy Manual is about packaging and how package scripts (pre/post scripts) behave, not about how applications themselves behave on upgrade.
Since gkrellm 2.3.6 changes how configuring CPU krells work it falls back to its internal default value. If you would extend the Debian Policy Manual to actual application behavior you would basically kick out any big desktop environment. I did not count the number of times I had to reconfigure things in KDE or XFCE on a new minor version but I can assure you there were many of such little hiccups.
