        Hmm. Is this perhaps an unfortunate misbehaviour of fakeroot?

        Please try the --rootcmd variation of the above:
 make-kpkg --initrd --rootcmd fakeroot --revision=1 --append-to-version 
'-beast' --arch-in-name -j8 buildpackage

        If that works, I shall update the documentation, and we'll see
 see if  we can narrow down where the problem actually lies.
