OK. I went the svn-buildpackage route, with:
svn-buildpackage --svn-ignore -rfakeroot -ksysop at hpc2n.umu.se -tc -sa

However, I'm getting this a bit into the build process:

dpkg-deb: parse error, in file `debian/lustre-dev/DEBIAN/control' near 
line 6 package `lustre-dev':
  `Depends' field, reference to `lustre-utils': error in version: 
version string is empty

And debian/lustre-dev/DEBIAN/control has:
Depends: lustre-utils (=  )

as opposed to debian/control:
Depends: lustre-utils (= ${binary:Version})

Any ideas on why? As this is on Ubuntu Dapper, might the reason be 
that the packaging uses some feature not present in the debhelper etc. 
utils? Suggestions on workaround(s)?

I'm slightly unclued on the finer details of debian packaging, so 
please bear with me ;)
