By making sure its sources.list contains the right repos :)
Anyway, that's done using this sequence of commands:
pbuilder create --distribution sarge --mirror http://your.mirror/
pbuilder login --save-after-login
Then edit sources.list, adding a backports.org mirror, and call
pbuilder update
Now you should be able to build packages for backports.org.
