This is not yet implemented as it is so easy to work around:
Just give dpkg-buildpackage a -sa flag and it will always reference
the .orig.tar.gz file within the .changes file so that reprepro will
happily include it.

I'd rather not implement it unless that way does not help, as such
a option would either need heavily jumping between all layers or
disable almost all checking and letting almost everything in.
(Or so special treatment of such files, that it will constant patching
 as someone has a special case not yet caught).
