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.

dependency from your build target, dpkg-buildpackage will work happily,
but I haven't tested this.

Cheers,
