Should be, but:

  $ grep-excuses base-config
  base-config (1.75 to 2.01)
      Maintainer: Debian Install System Team
      Too young, only 3 of 5 days old
      Not considered
      Depends: base-config debconf (not considered)
  $ grep-excuses debconf
  debconf (1.3.20 to 1.3.22)
      Maintainer: Joey Hess
      10 days old (needed 10 days)
      debconf (source, alpha, arm, hppa, i386, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc) is buggy! (1 > 0)
      Not considered

(#223039 doesn't look like it should stay serious, really ...)
