Well, at least this used to work in the past. If the version in stable
was greater than that in unstable or testing, that version would also
propagate there. This is not only convenient for security updates to
packages with the same version in stable as in unstable, but also makes
sure the condition stable >= testing >= unstable remains valid.

Appearently this didn't happen here, but as far as I understand it,
that's a bug.
