That both can't be and should not be :-) It "can't be" because even if du is accounting for any leftover, in either case the reported space would never be higher than the disk size (I don't have such a big disk). Also, it "should not be" because sbuild creates a temporary directory in /chroot/stretch/build named /chroot/stretch/build/sourcename-randomstring I want to believe that the "du" command is performed on this last directory, not on its parent, but I will leave this to you to check, since you know the code a lot better than me. Thanks.
