Sorry, this seems to be somewhat outdated information, it appears as if dak is rejecting these due to lintian, it *might* not be able to process them afterwards due to python-apt and libapt anyway, but I've not checked. Although the Linux kernel team concerns are valid regardless as the apt toolchain is unable to handle these, and there might be other tools around too.
