Without having looked at it (sorry), is it possible that it does call
dpkg-buildpackage instead of debian/rules to clean the current directory
to build a source package for use with pbuilder?  That would be another
data point of a script going through the dpkg-buildpackage API instead
of the debian/rules one which would accomplish the same.

Kind regards,
