The following patch does this. Unless the user explicitely specifies the distribution via -d $dist (in which case $main::override_distribution gets set), sbuild does not override the Distribution field in .changes. I tested this with a source package for experimental, and Distribution is unstable when -d unstable, and experimental otherwise. Any objections to applying this?
