Apparently, this is dpkg-buildbackage >= 1.18.11. I'm still not sure the best fix. Disabling parallel builds completely will be pretty painful for anyone rebuilding the package. I suppose I could add a gross hack to disable parallel builds on 32 bit architectures. BTW, the package goes to great lengths _not_ to rebuild the arch-indep parts on "weak" architectures, so this bug can only be triggered by using --arch-all, along with parallel=$bignum, on a 32 bit architecture.
