Correct, it only checks whether the build-depends are satisfiable as specified in the build-depends header. That is, only if a package declares it needs foo (>= latest version) will that package be moved to BD-Uninstallable until that's been built. If it ever matters, you can use dep-wait (not BD-Uninstallable, that's managed automatically) and/or build priorities. -- Copyshops should do vouchers.
