As you probably saw with my last bug report, there's now a way
for you to deal with this wishlist but it still involves messing
with the changelog.

If you tag the changelog entry with "binary-only=yes" then
dpkg-gencontrol will use the former changelog entry to find
out the version to put in ${source:Version}.

ftplib (3.1-1-9+b1) unstable; urgency=low, binary-only=yes

You should update --append-to-version to use this mechanism too.
