Same here. Looking at the tar changelog it's likely this is due to:
2008-11-25 Sergey Poznyakoff <g...@gnu.org.ua>
Do not try to drain the input pipe before closing the
archive.
tar closes its input fd, which sends SIGPIPE to gunzip, and dpkg errors
out. I'd argue this is a bug in dpkg-source, which ought to ignore
this.
Cheers,
Julien
