Well, I investigated this issue using sbdmock
conboy-unstable_0.6.1.6.dsc -r maemo-diablo-armel-extras-devel -u init
--debug
It showed everything I needed and did pretty much what you've mentioned.
Here is the quote from its output:

After it finished I was able to run scratchbox, go to the directory
with unpacked source package and investigate this further.

BTW, the reason for the issue was using wrong syntax for versioning
dependencies in the control file. Instead of using (<< 4.1) Cornelius
was using (< 4.1).
