Oh, and apologies if this is obvious, but the other reason a separate
udeb build pass may be necessary is if certain configure options make
the code actually not work in the context of d-i. This is the case for
openssh (for example, it builds an sshd that can be used as part of
d-i's network-console feature, but PAM wouldn't work in that context).
I don't know whether it's the case for e2fsprogs.
