       debian/source.lintian-overrides
           These files are not installed, but will be scanned by lintian to
           provide overrides for the source package.

but lintian(1) (version 2.5.10) says:

       [...] For source packages,
       Lintian looks for overrides in debian/source/lintian-overrides and then
       in debian/source.lintian-overrides if the first file is not found.  The
       first path is preferred.  See the Lintian User's Manual for the syntax
       of overrides.

dh_lintian(1) should probably advertise the preferred path.
