Hi,

tl;dr;: please set the PATH on the buildds to 
PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games

IOW: drop /usr/local/*bin from PATH.

#780725 is the bug to clarify policy, #780729 the one to set pbuilder to the 
same defaults as the buildds and #780724 is the bug which made me note this 
issue.

there is the buildd.debian.org pseudo-package to file bugs against.
