-4 is in unstable, yes. "rmadison" from the devscripts package can tell
you that in a quick and easy way, looking at
<http://packages.debian.org/btrfs-tools> would do the same - it's not so
hard. :)
But the message comes from mentors.debian.net, a service that's not
really related to backports.org so you should rather ask on their lists.
I guess they just compare the version numbers and don't check for the
Distribution part of the changes file. Why they claim that it got
sponsored though is strange, but again - this is not really related to
backports.org. :)
