The same_source is supposed to compare two versions and (if needed) "massage" a binNMU version into a source version. This extra feature of same_source happens to be unused (and not generally applicable): 1) We always compare two source versions, so there is never a binNMU version in the first place. 2) binary versions are *not* always equal to their source version (even with the binNMU suffix stripped). This happens when packages use "dpkg-gencontrol -v<version>". Note this causes results from some live-data tests to change, because there has been a sourceful upload with a binNMU version. It was intended as a binNMU, but was uploaded with the source as well. As Britney no longer works around this issue, it makes her remove the affected packages in the end (as their source version does not match the version in testing).
