Yes, by cherry-picking 7f8981e96 Add --no-parallel to dh and dh_auto_build to fix building on stable you can make everything up to and including 3.17.10+repack0-6 build!
But at 3.18.4+repack0-1 and above fails to build because of Bump debhelper compat to 11 Stretch does not have debhelper v11 support. You guys must be developing under sid, and never checking that your releases will actually build under the various stable releases. But your branches are still named for the various stable versions, that is, debian/stretch-backports, debian/stretch, debian/jessie-backports, debian/jessie. But you never check that these commits will actually build for these versions. This is very confusing.
