Possible alternative methods:

a) teaching sbuild and $VCS-buildpackage an option to use another command instead of dpkg-buildpackage, or

b) (as a hack, if (a) is too fussy) overriding dpkg-buildpackage with a wrapper that appears earlier on the $PATH.

I'm not interested in patching multiple builders or dirtying my build environment.

In case (a), wouldn't you only need to patch one builder (namely the one you use),

Is this a polite way of saying "nobody else but you would use this feature anyway"?

In any case, arguing other this is not a productive use of my time. dpkg developers: if you are are not interested in the patch I proposed, please tell me as soon as possible, so that I can close the bug and work on another (inferior) solution to my problem.
