Please sync bzr-builddeb 2.7.2 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
Included upstream.

Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:
Includes a lot of important bug fixes. Also adds Ubuntu oneiric
and Debian wheezy to the list of supported distributions which we'd
need to do anyways.
