Bug description:
  Today, germanium's disk filled up because of this:

  -rw-r--r-- 1 lp_queue lp_queue 104G 2009-01-06 16:44 tmpHiK-
  la/udev_124-12_136~git+34ac42b-1.diff

  which is from package-diff.  Scott mentioned on IRC:

  <Keybuk> the udev tarballs have weirdisms in them
  <Keybuk> like looped symlinks and stuff
  <Keybuk> but that just spams stderr usually (and upsets dpkg-source)
  <Keybuk> it's in the test suite of sysfs weirdisms
