It's important to note that's "at least". Nothing linked against
libc6 has made it into testing in quite a while, since there was an
RC bug filed against it for a long time (in internet time, at
least).
I think the bug has been closed, so there should be a flood shortly,
but this emphasizes that you can't depend on frequent updates to
testing.
