dpkg plays zero role in that problem, -devel would have been more
appropriate.

I don't know but $(MAKEFLAGS) doesn't need to be given on the make command
line, AFAIK it's implicit so try removing it in your invocation.
Or maybe the 2 is implicitly respected because it corresponds to the
number of fds given in --jobserver-fds.
