It turns out that doing pristine-tar by hand often gives different 
results, as I discovered: 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1065445 

So I don't know what best to recommend, personally.  Anyway, once this 
bug is fixed, definitely using gbp import-orig is the way to go (and 
probably even before it is).
