Well, this took me a while longer than I thought.  Here's a patch.

The debian/debhelper.mk hack is meant to be temporary, of course.  I filed
a bug on cdbs requesting addition of dh_movefiles call already.

Any news about this one?  If you want, I can send a patch for the suggested
package split + conflicts.
