So it is not documentated, but according to this bug http://bugs.python.org/issue6884 it is prohibited to include files relative to 'build' directory.
So if one renames the output directory via --output parameter to something else, everything works as expected. So feel free to close this report. But nevertheless I would recommend using a output directory which is by default not 'build' to avoid such situations in the future.
