I have no idea how this is supposed to add the experimental archive
to the APT sources.list...

Also, I am well aware that I can hack stuff with pbuilderrc. I am
trying to avoid that. I think the security archives should be added
to a stable or testing chroot by default simply because they are
rather helpful.
