use ccache (instructions elsewhere, I'm afraid, I can't remember.
possibly appending CC=ccache, or prefixing PATH=/usr/lib/ccache, to
make-kpkg...) and do a make-kpkg clean between builds. This performs a
clean on the source (bad from your POV as that means more building than
necessary) but ccache will counter-act that. It also deletes some stamp
files etc., which are the source of make-kpkg's complaints.
