I have no idea.  I believed dh_shlibdeps in debian/rules would do the
right thing.

Is there a bug in libXmu making dh_shlibdeps fail to do the right
thing?  I'm open for suggestions, but I did not do anything special to
the code and hoped it would be correct.

Yes, installing libxmu-dev is a workaround for this bug.

I welcome explanations on what is going on here, and how it ended up
searching for the wrong library name.
