Uuuh, right, the preservation starts fine, but the restoration
should occur from the .pybuild directory, as that's what gets
installed afterwards.  I suppose I should move the restoration
stanza out of the execute_before_dh_auto_install target in favor
of the PYBUILD_BEFORE_INSTALL environment variable.  Let's see…

Thanks for spotting this!
Have a nice day,  :)
