Are you kidding ?
If you build a package in a non-standard environment, there is
no certitude that it will build correctly. There is way too much
building environments to support all of them.
  You might ask for support for another one with a whishbug
but do to try to remove the software from Debian if it does not
build in your non-standard environment!

  Note that using fakeroot should be a very quick workaround and
I'm sure that *lots* of packages do not build without fakeroot.

  Where does this "should" come from? Policy?
  And *non-root build does not fail* if you use fakeroot (I never
build my packages as root myself!) and it should  probably also work
(not tested) if /sbin is added in your PATH.

  I'm really not convinced with your argument. If I do this
modification, it wont be possible to test another ldconfig
implementation with just adjusting the PATH envvar.
