Thanks for the review Steve!

AFAICT one of the changes is necessary to make the mutlarch transition work. We have the following options

(1) remove the debian/rules "cp" AND switch compat level 9:
  this will result in ./usr/lib/debug/.build-id/f4/7892f47cb94a3d0023eead658b8da482b90f84.debug in the freeglut3-dbg package which is what debian/sid and quantal are having (size 269979)

(2) keep the debian/rules cp AND revert to compat level 7:
  - this will result in ./usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglut.so.3.9.0 in freeglut3-dbg, so a proper multiarch path

(3) revert both changes: this will result in a non-multiarch path /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/libglut.so.3.9.0 in the freeglut3-dbg package for all architecture so its not a option

I like option (2) best but I'm happy with option (1) as well. Whatever is less risky and more likely to get accepted in the SRU.
