I think these are separate bugs which you can fix in the same upload. In particular the decision to ignore the "is not source" problem for these files in wheezy needs to be taken separately. If the Release Team don't feel ignoring this issue is appropriate, I guess you should do the work to remove the content in wheezy (leaving the empty file as you suggest). Personally I think if you have tested that removing the file contents works, ignoring this issue for wheezy is lower-risk. But I know that some people take a much firmer line on these kind of issues. I assume you have the patch ready for post-wheezy ? Since you seem to say you've tested it. Perhaps you could post this patch to the bug report too ?
