Not takeing sides on the frozen/deep-freeze split off argument, I'm not sure
*this* has anything to do with when unstable splits off. This is probably more
due to maintainer's "slacking" (I realize they're volunteers) and/or Debian
leaving packages adopted/maintainers on the books long after they've left the
project (and I'm including the ones that don't mention they left).
