Bug#618959: pdebuild -- --debbuildopts=whatever not propagated to dpkg-buildpackage

[Junichi Uekawa]

I think I added this line in the man page to make it clearer:

              Note that for pdebuild, debbuildopts needs to be specified as a pdebuild option in the command-line, not as a pbuilder option.


I think the reason was that pdebuild needs to change behavior
depending on some parts of debbuildopts, and so it cannot be sent as a
pass-thru option.
