I think you are misunderstood me :-(
If you follow my original post, I understand current "su" is from shadow
and it is in login package. I even have my box set up with PAM(wheel).

Your changelog entry say you removed it.(i386) I am confused with your
comment. You must be right since you are the maintainer but that is not
what I see here.
If I do "info su", manual page comes out (testing machine).
sh-utils (2.0.12-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream version
* no more FAKE_SPARC in uname
* no more info file! (coreutils.info resides in fileutils for
now. I'll deal with this more elegantly in a future release.)
* minor debian/rules changes
