According to the manual page, -k argument "must be in quotes if it is more than one (shell) word." I'm not sure whether this a comment on how user's shell splits arguments or how deb-reversion splits them, but in either case quoting doesn't help:

$ deb-reversion -k 'echo hello world' devscripts_2.11.4_i386.deb
/usr/bin/deb-reversion: eval: line 77: unexpected EOF while looking for 
matching `''

$ deb-reversion -k "'echo hello world'" devscripts_2.11.4_i386.deb
/usr/bin/deb-reversion: eval: line 77: unexpected EOF while looking for 
matching `''

$ deb-reversion -k '"echo hello world"' devscripts_2.11.4_i386.deb
/usr/bin/deb-reversion: eval: line 77: unexpected EOF while looking for 
matching `''
