Both of you are correct. pristine-tar is supposed to make the problems go away, but it isn't perfect. When it doesn't work bzr-builddeb will try some other methods to grab the tarball, but I didn't think to try Debian explicitly (if you have deb-src lines for debian in your sources.list it should work). I intend to add this feature when I get a little time, or I would happily help someone else add it.
