It was a bug I introduced and the package hasn't seen its initial
install yet, was why not much detail.  sbuild in CVS doesn't use
"dpkg-buildpackage -d" AFAICT.

I added it because it allows the user to play with dependencies
(maybe manually installing something) w/o sbuild crapping out
because dpkg-buildpackage is unhappy with missing build-deps.
But the stable dpkg-buildpackage barfs when it sees the switch.
I'll add your version check after it's installed and otherwise
seems to be working ok.

BTW, sbuild is patched a little to allow it to use source in the
current directory.  If you have time I'd appreciate it if you
could have a look.  It could no doubt be improved.
