Certainly. I've been using
http://svn.madduck.net/pub/bin/pbuilder/plogin, which can be
symlinked to pexecute, pbuild, pupdate, and pclean. Those five take
care of my pbuilder needs. To build packages, I use pbuild, or, if
that's not available, the same sort of idea in dbuild:
http://svn.madduck.net/pub/bin/debian/dbuild.

(updates to these pending, I am on the train now and rewrote parts)

Well, it kinda depends. I think it's always nice to get rid of
wrapper shell scripts as functionality moves to the core -- pbuilder
in this case. If it won't get fixed, tag it wontfix. Okay?
