A third alternative would be to use a comment in d/control:

----
Build-Depends:
  some, packages,
# Include in Built-Using:
  other-packages
----

dh_builtusing could then include all build dependencies listed below the
marker in the Built-Using field.  Of course the marker should look a bit
more like something processed by a tool than a free-form comment as
above.
