Nothing in 7.6 requires this.  However, I agree that tetex-bin should
use "libxaw7-dev | libxaw-dev" instead of just "libxaw-dev".

Policy 7.4:

     If you want to specify which of a set of real packages should be the
     default to satisfy a particular dependency on a virtual package, you
     should list the real package as an alternative before the virtual one.
