review:
 - comment in debian/README.Source:

  10 [...] Note that we do not use '~dfsgN' or something similar since there
  11 is currently code in XBMC that does not meet the guidelines of the open source
  12 definition.

??

 - windows binaries in system/players/dvdplayer/*.dll

 - more windows binaries in system/*.dll

 - the orig.tar.gz is > 130MB, with >400MB of unpacked sources. holy
   cow! I guess that most of these are 3rd party libraries and media
   files, but that's still huge. Are you really sure that it makes sense
   to have such a big beast in debian?

 - I ran out of disk space while building it. Appearently it needs more
   than 2GB of disk space. :-(
