They must be a bit behind. /usr/share/doc/libc6/changelog.Debian.gz
(from my update today) says, when line-wrapped:

glibc (2.1.3-1) frozen unstable; urgency=low
[...]
  * Really fix devpts.sh
    (closes:Bug#56659,#56687,#56726,#56770,#56782,#56893,#56941,#56850,
     #56659,#57049,#57005,#57156,#57183).
