I know, but I was trying to work around the absence of an environment
variable for the debianized source directory!

We are _not_ talking about pbuilder, we are talking about pdebuild !
Please re-read the initial bug report !

BUILDDIR may be useful for users who invoke "pbuilder build ...".
I usually invoke "pdebuild ...", so I would need you to modify
pdebuild-internal, as requested in the original bug report:
just before
export HOME=$(readlink -f $(pwd)/../)
please add
export DEBSOURCEDIR=$(readlink -f $(pwd))
maybe with a check (in case of failure) and with a comment that
explains that this is useful for hook scripts.

I would rather reopen this bug report, since the requested feature has
not yet been implemented...
Please let me know whether anything in my reasoning is flawed.
Thanks for your time and patience.
Bye.
