Sorry for the late reply.

> huge diff
Apparently, it is huge diff. This arises from the particularity of dvipsk-ja 
package.

dvipsk-ja is dvipsk with Japanese patch. Original dvipsk is released within
TeX Live package, not released by itself. Therefore old/new dvipsk-ja source
pacakge create orig.tar.gz to strip dvipsk code from TeX Live source tree.

Japanese patch is released independently. In old dvipsk-ja, orig.tar.gz has
been already applied. In new dvipsk-ja, separated alternate archive file.

For above reason, old dvipsk-ja orig.tar.gz includes libkpathsea4 code.
If would like to resolve FTBFS to rebulid against libkpathsea5, it seems that
needs modify orig.tar.gz drastically (ie. needs big patch which is similar
in new upstream version).

> rebuild against libkpathsea5

Result of FTBFS to rebuild against libkpathsea5:
