The buildd chroots use a different configuration file for the
sources.list, namely /etc/apt/sources.buildd.list. This file is
therefore specified in /etc/apt.conf with the following line:

Dir::Etc::SourceList "sources.buildd.list";

It seems that d-i sources.list generator doesn't take the configuration
files into account. It works by chance on other buildds (but might use
the wrong mirror if it has been modified since the chroot has been
created), and doesn't work on automatically generated chroots as this
file simply doesn't exist.

I therefore guess this issue has to be fixed on the d-i side. However we
can build this version on the non autosigned buildd, so that you don't
have to do another upload just for that.
