Without those two environment variables (noposix unsets them):

lakeview no % noposix apt-get source libxml2

Since I run with those two environment variables set by default,
dpkg-source is constantly broken.  This hasn't always been the case;
there was a time when dpkg-source worked.  dpkg-source should be fixed
to work in POSIX mode, as it used to.
