OK, this one I -refuse- to take the blame for! :)

That's not how testing works.  You don't build for testing; you build
for unstable.  Packages don't move into testing until they have
sufficiently few RC bugs and build for all released architectures for
which a previous version built - that means that not much is going into
testing until we get glibc 2.2 built on arm and m68k, which should be
soon.
