That really shouldn't happen. I suspect that the problem is related
to the transitions: G++4 ABI, libc6-2.3.5, and X.org are the big ones.
But, my understanding was that testing shouldn't have broken
dependencies (a package should not migrate into testing unless its
dependencies in testing will be satisfied), but maybe I am wrong?
