I think this is a bug - either in the package, or (more likely) in
pbuilder. Or your pbuilder setup is incorrect, but then it would
probably happen with every package.
What problems exactly do you have with which packages?

No, the official build tool is sbuilder (and not exactly the version
that is released somewhere, IIRC).
