It's comforting to know that this seems to be a relatively common occurrence 
(although this is the first time I've run into it, and I've been running 
debian for maybe seven or eight years at this point). As far as I know I have 
only official debian stable packages on the system, so it has the flavour of a 
minor packaging bug somewhere. Anyway, I'm not going to worry about it, given 
that you see it so often. I have cleared out the offending directory and moved on.

Thanks to you and the other posters for responding.
