I now recollect the whole context of how this bug originated. Re-
opening this bug for now.

I am surprise that you mentioned being able to build recent kernels.


The bug started with this failure..

This has been reported in the BTS.
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=772664


So, one of the way to workaround the bug, was to increase the number of
allowed processes for a user.  But that really did not help.

That is when I used --rootcmd sudo, because such limitations do not
apply to the root user.


So, this bug should just be merged with 772664.
