5.6.31.1 Remarks
................

All packages and builders must support ‘binary-targets’ as this was the
historical behaviour prior to the introduction of this field.

Any tool (particularly older versions of them) may be unaware of this
field and behave like the field was set to ‘binary-targets’.  The
package build must gracefully cope with this and produce a semantically
equivalent result.

This field intentionally does not enable a package to request a true
root over fakeroot.
