In fakeroot 1.16-1, Debian added a patch to add access() support, to fix
debian bug #629956.

However, this broke apt (debian bug #630591) and other stuff (debian bug
#630129), and so the patch was reverted in fakeroot 1.17-1:

As a workaround, you can make pygtk succeed via the LD_PRELOAD trick:

  G_HOME=/ PYTHON=/usr/bin/python$* LD_PRELOAD="" xvfb-run -s "-screen 0
1280x1024x24 -noreset" $(MAKE) -C build-$* check

The real solution is to pull fakeroot 1.17-1 and get rid of fakeroot's
bugged access().
