While this is a valid point, I assume that also a plain dpkg-buildpackage in a "normal" environment fails, which is not elegant. As a side note: Some months ago I tried to come up with a patch; this sounds simple, and (un)setting enviroment variables is nothing unusual -- but as you can see from the lack of a patch I failed :/ Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
