The ideal way to approach this is to announce a change, 
document that change, provide some environmental variable
support for that change (like POSIXLY_CORRECT)

Then change.

We've got quite a bit of tools in sarge that doesn't work with
this change, right?

Etch release?

We already delayed this for sarge release.then tried to fix it
(badly as you know). I don't want bug reports rotting in the BTS. I
have no idea of the shadow devel team healt in more than 1 year and I
prefer we fixed as many bugs as possible while we can.

Are these changes *that* invasive for pbuilder?
