dpkg-buildpackage only uses fakeroot et al for the clean and binary targets, not the build target; your binary-src target is depended upon by your build target, which gets run without fakeroot (before the binary targets). I believe this done specifically as compiling software often doesn't work too well with fakeroot. >From inspection, it look like if you simply remove the 'binary-src' dependency from your build target, dpkg-buildpackage will work happily, but I haven't tested this.
