Ok, I'll submit bugs about it so that they do *not* get lost. :)

The patch that configures the build dir would have to be rewritten for
that to work; sbuild seems to hard-code /build/ in a number of places ,
rather than the proposed /usr/src/debian/PACKAGE-VERSION; I'm not sure
what directory pbuilder is configured to use.
Also, pbuilder and sbuild would need to ensure the same exact package
set from build dependencies; there are various different dependency
resolvers which might result in differences that could cause
unreproducibility...
Could also add a third (and/or fourth) build with sbuild, to catch
issues where a package is rebuildable with pbuilder or sbuilder, but
doesn't produce consistant results when built once with pbuilder and
once with sbuild...

With the above two issues (and perhaps other undiscovered issues) fixed,
it should be as simple as replacing:
pbuild --build ... --distribution sid ${SRCPACKAGE}_*.dsc
with:
sbuild --chroot sid ${SRCPACKAGE}_*.dsc
With appropriately configured sbuild/schroot chroots.
live well,
