Bug#489457: experimental does not solve stable

I didn't. The only thing I did was just to mark it as fixed in the 3.0
packages.
If you look at the version graph (I fixed the version info right now) you see
it'll still appear as not fixed for stable.

a) This bugs is closed with 3.0.0-1, which is not in experimental anymore,
   but followers of it are even in *testing*
b) bugs get closed when the fixed package appears. 
   It doesn't say that this is fixed in stable but says that it's fixed in
   the version it was closed with. It will still appear open for stable.
c) it's not a (release-)critical bug, so I fear I will never get the approval
   to fix it in stable - expecially since we don't have a patch but just know
   that it works in 3.0.
