Right, this was reported to me some time ago by Richard Purdie, and got already fixed in 1.18.2, for both the dpkg-deb issue and a potential similar issue I noticed in the perl modules: <http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dpkg/dpkg.git/commit/?id=fcfe4f3aa2f3cb7f8179d4f2fe6dd65e75f7bbdf> <http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dpkg/dpkg.git/commit/?id=02e2060504f1c8dbbe5dec8211beaf945350c789> My plan was to keep it in 1.18.x for a bit, to get it tested, and then backport it to the 1.16.x and 1.17.x branches.
