Bug Description
I just had a package rejected by Launchpad because one of the patches in this "3.0 (quilt)" package touched a particular file more than once.
"dpkg-source -x" gives a nice warning about this when uploading a package like this but still completes. Launchpad rejects an upload like this outright, and only sends back a simple error saying that dpkg-source failed with exit code 9.
I also wonder if it's necessary to reject a package in case of a warning like this.

Jelmer, can you attach the upload files you use please? It'll help someone re-create the bug. Thanks!
