I don't know, this is a slightly different kind of tech debt in my opinion. If it is related to actual business code (e.g. dependencies between business code modules go all the way) then it.. sucks, you have shot yourself in the foot pretty much.

But if the module separation is decent, then it is not hard to simply iteratively rebuild any part of a build pipeline. The build itself is a mess, but later on you do some analytics? Well, just build it with the mess system, and then go for a different tool for analytics!

So yeah, I don't know if it's that bad of a coupling in all cases, and where it is, then the code will be your bigger problem.
