My subsequent functioning run for patch was done after changing 

PBUILDERROOTCMD="sudo"

Let me chack ... on my normal shell, "sudo -E bash" works... hmmmm

My dagonose of this problem may have been in a wring direction...

wait ... it looks like ' sudo -E' is a single command including space.  Of
course there is no commandwith space like that on my system.

debuild-pbuilder has line:

"$PBUILDERROOTCMD" "$PBUILDERSATISFYDEPENDSCMD"

Aren't you missing "eval" at the start of this line?

In older pbuilder, PBUILDERROOTCMD="sudo" was used ... so we did not see issue ....
