Passes test case found in the Debian bug. Also passes the simple tests in test-dpkg.py from the qa-regression-testing project.
To be clear, I do not need this fix to proceed with the update mentioned in this bug description. I've found a different/better way to do what I needed to do but since I did hit this bug, I figured it would be good to get the fix in to Ubuntu's dpkg before someone else hits it.
