Hi Stefan,
Thank you for explaining this to me.

I'm wondering if there's more of a potential issue in Ubuntu than in
Debian here. Our next release will be supported for five years, so I
expect that we'll backport a number of as-yet-unknown bug fixes. As
we're team based, it could be anybody doing this, and they may be
unaware of this issue.
So I think I'd prefer to carry the backported fix for this, just so
there isn't a mine for a future developer to step on.
We prefer to keep our delta against Debian small, so that's a vote from
me to have the fix in 2.4.7-2, please. That's assuming that we just need
the ignore-quilt-dir patch, or are there any complications with
build system regeneration or anything like that?
I'll also look to see if I can write a dep8 test that just checks for
duplicate module loads.
Thanks,
Robie
