I can reproduce this using the code from current git and a slightly
hacked reporting harness which only checks php-net-socket. From my
investigations so far, it looks like a bug in the package scheduling
code but I need to dig a little deeper.

That's a symptom of the same problem. The PTS reads a file produced by
the lintian.d.o reporting setup indicating which packages had issues
rated "warning" or "error". In this case, the file contains
"php-net-socket 0 0" which whilst technically accurate is somewhat
confusing...
