In the interim, I believe this has been worked out.  The Falcon programming 
language package was renamed falconpl both here and in the Debian ITP.  I own 
the Debian ITP for Dennis' Falcon and am working with Brandon Holtsclaw 
(imbrandon) (who uploaded it to Ubuntu) to update and test the package with a 
renamed file in /usr/bin to avoid namespace collision there.  It's largely 
the documentation patch that's stopped this getting uploaded for the moment.
