I don't remember any tool building the debs in the debian/ subdirectory. If they do, I have never seen it leave them there. The .diff.gz, .dsc, .orig.tar.gz, .deb, and .changes should all end up in the build parent. Perhaps you could run dpkg-buildpackage (or at least the dh_builddeb or equivalent part) through strace?
