If I read the documentation correctly, then: libvorbis will be rejected because it breaks everything that depends on libvorbis0. Everything that now depends on libvorbis0a will be rejected because their dependancies cannot be met... I guess someone has to add a hint to the testing script to recur over libvorbis and see if upgrading it would mean less breakage than currently exists... Which is probably true if all the packages which depend on it are "valid candidates". If libvorbis is 'recur'd unsuccessfully, then you'll get a complete list of the packages in testing which would be broken by libvorbis and which can't be updated to a version that depends on libvorbis0a. On _all_ arches, not just one.
