I'm getting the following error when running the test suite:

,----
| dpkg_buildpackage.t: error: /usr/local/src/dpkg/build-tree/scripts/../../scripts/dpkg-buildpackage.pl --host-arch=amd64 --build=source --check-command= gave error exit status 25
| # Looks like your test exited with 25 before it could output anything.
| ../../scripts/t/dpkg_buildpackage.t ........
| Dubious, test returned 25 (wstat 6400, 0x1900)
| Failed 7/7 subtests
`----

After redirecting dpkg-buildpackage's error messages to a real file
instead of /dev/null in the test_build function the problem seems to be
clear:

,----
| dpkg-architecture: warning: specified GNU system type x86_64-linux-gnu does not match CC system type i686-linux-gnu, try setting a correct CC environment variable
| dpkg-source --before-build test-source-0
| fakeroot debian/rules clean
| dpkg-source -b test-source-0
| dpkg-source: warning: missing information for output field Standards-Version
| dpkg-genchanges --build=source >../test-source_0_source.changes
| dpkg-genchanges: info: including full source code in upload
| dpkg-source --after-build test-source-0

| gpg: dpkg-sign.dsbr2X3M/test-source_0.dsc: clearsign failed: No secret key
| dpkg-buildpackage.pl: error: failed to sign .dsc and .changes file
`----

I improved the test code to output error messages on failing tests.

Thanks! It seems having those settings in my local dpkg-buildpackage
configuration file has been causing more issues than necessary. I
guess I should just finish up the stuff to get this disabled by
default. :)
