I don't think it's nice to change the core behavious of pbuilder automatically; what you did is the right thing, and that's all which should be done. I think aptitude should be installed on pbuilder create and kept on pbuilder update instead of being installed during each build (as the code allows in the current version but it might or might not be the case for you). I committed a change to add/keep aptitude in the environment when using the aptitude resolver, and not otherwise. Is this good enough to close this bug? See also #539578.
