hmm, I’m surprised if that is really true. dpkg ignores delete files
when generating the diff, i.e. they do not constitue local changes.
Also, dpkg-buildpackage runs debian/rules clean before calling
dpkg-source to generate the source package. So from my experience, and
without checking the specifics of this package, I agree with Philipp
that adding the files to debian/clean should be enough; and if I am
wrong or something weird happend in this case, I am curious about what
it might be.

Greetings,
Joachim
