Looking at the ubuntu changelog, it appears they tried just that and then reverted back again:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ptlib

So I suspect it isn't a good idea.

I assume you're referring to this?:

  ptlib (2.6.1-0ubuntu4) jaunty; urgency=low

    * debian/control: restore the conflicts for the -dev packages, which are
      real and necessary.

That's about package conflicts, not build-conflicts.  I have no idea whether
there are self-build-conflicts that are necessary - though I certainly agree
they're inelegant.

So do finally people agree to remove the build-conflicts?
