You simply have the facts wrong - none of those packages
have RELEASE-CRITICAL bugs for i386. I refer you to
the list of release-critical bugs at
http://ftp-master.debian.org/testing/testing_probs.html
which has the number of release-critical bugs by
architecture. Here it is:
---start quote---
Totals by arch:

    * mips:52
    * mipsel:54
    * hppa:91
    * arm:54
    * sparc:19
    * ia64:39
    * i386:1
    * m68k:29
    * alpha:27
    * s390:44
    * powerpc:20
---end quote---

The *one* RC bug for i386 is not for anything you
cite.
