I suggest you do the compilation in a chroot environment.
In a project I work for there is a script which lets you create a secure
chroot (schroot):
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~debfactory-devs/debfactory/devel/view/head:/bin/build_schroot.py
You can then jump into the schroot with "schroot -c oneiric-amd64 -p" (for
example) install the build-depends, make the compilation and packaging and
just get rid of the schroot by typing "exit".
Have fun.

apologies, just bumping this thread. Also, I've got just about any dev package that I think might be related installed, the difficulty may be that I can't install too many 32 bit versions without ripping out most of my system. Any suggestions?
