It is in our plans to use the Scratchbox 1 Debian Squeeze devkit. However, it seems to be missing some of the packages that did come with previous devkits, like dh-make or man-db.
This is done in favor of allowing the usage of software from the target side. The squeeze devkit contains the bare minimum, where etch and sarge devkits tried to be a more complete set of tools.
It's a trade-off either way, for things like cdbs it's just simple enough to have the makefiles in the target (nothing architecture specific about those), so when you upgrade them, you don't need to upgrade the devkit as well.
My original intention was not to have even debhelper there, but that would've made the devkit drastically less useful, not to mention a number of problems caused by the old host perl.
The reason dh-make is not there, is that despite the dh prefix, it's not a part of debhelper. And it's yet another architecture independent package which you can use from outside scratchbox just as well...
