That doesn't appear to be the current situation on the buildds. The
official buildds, for packages in main, seem to include contrib but
not non-free binary packages in the chroot's apt sources.list files.
Both contrib and non-free source packages are available in the chroots
apt sources.list files. This appears to be the same for all three of
main, contrib, non-free. Take a look at any recent build log. Not sure
when it was changed, but ISTR it used to be that non-free but not
contrib were in the buildd chroots.
