Can you give an example? I would think that the second dpkg-buildpackage would apply patches again, so in principle I don't see how this would break. I could easily have missed a problem, though, since I usually work with source that has been patched already (since that is what I store in the VCS and that is what "dpkg-source -x" produces), and in that case dpkg-buildpackage does not unapply patches.
