Hi,

Assuming I have not overlooked something, then I believe this bug is now
resolved in debhelper and will close it in a few days.  This is because:

 * I have filed bugs for all known packages that currently FTBFS due to
   empty or incomplete targets (usually caused by .PHONY).  Most of
   these have a patch attached.

 * The autoreconf related issue was solved in dh-autoreconf/16, which
   solved the problems in some of the originally listed packages.
   (See #887482)

 * There was a regression in the --no-act that caused a single FTBFS.
   This has a patch in debhelper master that has yet to be uploaded
   (I just cloned this bug for that purpose).
