We tried to reproduce the bug with zobel, and finally discovered the Truth.
I'll try to explain:
$ apt-get source tar=1.14-2.1
$ cd tar-1.14
$ debuild > ../first-build.log
$ grep REMOTE_SHELL config.h
/* #undef REMOTE_SHELL */
$ debuild > ../second-build.log
$ grep REMOTE_SHELL config.h
#define REMOTE_SHELL "/usr/bin/rsh"
And with the diff between log files it is obvious, in the first run we
can see:
/usr/bin/make
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/tar-1.14'
cd . && /bin/sh /home/tar-1.14/config/missing --run aclocal-1.8 -I m4
/home/tar-1.14/config/missing: line 52: aclocal-1.8: command not found
WARNING: `aclocal-1.8' is missing on your system. You should only need it if
you modified `acinclude.m4' or `configure.ac'. You might want

any GNU archive site.
cd . && /bin/sh /home/tar-1.14/config/missing --run automake-1.8 --gnits

/bin/sh ./config.status --recheck

So ./configure is launched again without $RSH environment variable set
correctly.
Finally, I solved it this way:
diff -u tar-1.14/debian/rules tar-1.14/debian/rules
--- tar-1.14/debian/rules
+++ tar-1.14/debian/rules
@@ -16,7 +16,7 @@

touch build-stamp
Happy birthday Martin ! ;-)
