[Build-common-hackers] Bug#447796: clean target aborts with "/bin/sh: id: No such file or directory"

[Mickaël Leduque]

Package: cdbs
Version: 0.4.49
Severity: important

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
When I try to build a custom made package, the clean rule is called, 
then the build stop with the follonwing error :

dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture i386
  fakeroot debian/rules clean
test -x debian/rules
test "`id -u`" = 0
/bin/sh: id: No such file or directory
make: *** [testroot] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: failure: fakeroot debian/rules clean gave error exit 
status 2

"which id" returns /usr/bin/id and "fakeroot id -u" gives 0
