There are several bugs open about this. You need to set
'APT::Cache-Limit 10000000', or something similarly large in
/etc/apt/apt.conf (create it if it's not there).

It's pretty pointless IMHO. If stability is important to you then you
probably want to be building newer packages from source rather than
pulling from testing or unstable; if not, then you'd be better off using
straight testing or straight unstable.
