apt-get dist-upgrade wants to remove libdbi-ocaml-dev



I've got a Debian/stable, with some Debian/testing packages using
Apt-pinning.  When I try to upgrade, it wants to remove
libdbi-ocaml-dev, which in this instance would be a Very Bad Thing.

# apt-get -u dist-upgrade
Reading Package Lists... Done

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  libdbi-ocaml-dev 
The following packages will be upgraded
  adduser cvs dpkg dselect gcc-3.3-base libaudio2 libdb3 libdbi-ocaml
  libextlib-ocaml-dev libfreetype6 libgcc1 libkrb53 libncurses5
  libncurses5-dev libncursesw5 libpgsql2 libssl-dev libssl0.9.7 libstdc++5
  linux-kernel-headers plone python python2.3 zlib1g zlib1g-dev zope-cmfplone
  zope-formulator 
27 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0  not upgraded.
Need to get 17.1MB of archives. After unpacking 4182kB will be used.

Why is this?  I thought it could only happen if some upgraded package
superceeded/obsoletes this one, but this doesn't seem to be the case
because none of the upgraded packages have anything to do with OCaml.
