I can't reproduce the problem here, so someone else is going to have to
figure out what's different on the system(s) where it fails.  My builds
are all done using git-buildpackage to drive a cowbuilder instance.

Checking the autobuilders, 1:1.8.2-1 built successfully on all
architectures except armel and armhf, where it shows as having been in a
"Building" state for a freakishly long time.  Since they're still
building, I can't see logs for those builds yet... so no way to tell if
they're experiencing this problem or it's something else.
