I'm merging with the already filed bug report, because the request
seems confused. The time spent when building kernel packages rests in
dpkg-deb not dpkg-source, and native source packages or *.(debian|diff).*
source packaging do not tend to be huge, so I'll assume the request was
for binary and not source packages. Thus merging the requests.
