Propagation to unstable only happens if the version in stable is higher
than the version in unstable.

But you're right -- there is an issue if the package shouldn't even exist
in unstable (because it's been split up or renamed or some such).  So we
probably shouldn't propagate to unstable if the target is only stable.
