Probably the hppa buildd admins (in Cc) can help here?
One issue is that any further updates to the package, either via security or directly through p-u, will have the same problem. The hand-build will fix this particular instance but the source versioning will need to be carefully chosen for any future update in order to avoid the issue occurring again (-6.0.2 not being built from the -6 source also rather violates the principle of least surprise.)
