This spawns a new subprocess for each file, using xargs might be more
efficient. On the other hand, the xargs solution might break if there
are more than 2^31 - 1 files.

Could you provide something suitable for git? A short description, less
maximum 75 characters (including the Closes: #nnn) and a long
description? I want to use git-dch to (semi-)auto-generate the changelog
from the short descriptions (and not change the changelog otherwise).
Best are patches generated by git format-patch against the git master
branch. In case you do not know git:
git clone git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/dh-autoreconf.git
cd dh-autoreconf
.... work on the files (dh_autoreconf in this case) ...
git commit -a # commit all changes
git format-patch origin/master
And then attach the patch created by git format-patch to the bug report.
And for the future: I am subscribed to the Ubuntu bugs and we can deal
with the Ubuntu bugs directly in a new release and sync it; there is no
reason to do a special Ubuntu upload (or file a bug in two bug
trackers).
Regards,
Julian
