I would put the focus into the "upgraded" packages:

libgail18:i386 (2.20.1-2, 2.24.4-3)
libwmf0.2-7:i386 (0.2.8.4-6.1+b1, 0.2.8.4-8)
libgtk2.0-bin:i386 (2.20.1-2, 2.24.4-3)
libgeoip1:i386 (1.4.7~beta12+dfsg-1, 1.4.7+dfsg-2) 
wireshark:i386 (1.2.11-6+squeeze1, 1.6.0-1)
librsvg2-2:i386 (2.26.3-1, 2.34.0-1)
librsvg2-common:i386 (2.26.3-1, 2.34.0-1)
libgtk2.0-0:i386 (2.20.1-2,2.24.4-3)
wireshark-common:i386 (1.2.11-6+squeeze1, 1.6.0-1)

Updated versions are from wheezy, as you say below.

I can't help for the pinning issue, that thingy looks like a sort of "black 
magic" to me :-). But yes, it seems they're now from wheezy and that pulled 
the updated GKT+ libraries so I would try to return back the packages to the 
old version and see how it goes.
