No, it doesn't (for that kind of change). A change to buildtool/buildtool.pl, buildtool/buildpacket,pl or anything inside the buildtool/buildtool and buildtool/conf directories is only picked up by doing a "cvs update"
Regarding picking up changes in package setups - this is a case where "buildtool.pl -f" might work. But since dependencies aren't honoured (and packages depending on something that's being rebuilt aren't tagged as "dirty" or something like that) I would not rely on it. If you want to be sure and you don't exactly know the implications of a change, the safe way is to check out buildtool and rebuild everything. No need to complain (it's surely not nice, and several people have complained about it before) - that's the way it is right now, and I don't know of anybody willing to put in the time that would be required to change it.
