Lenny/Violatile is Stable?



My line for the debian-volatile repository for lenny is:
deb     http://localhost:9999/volatile  lenny/volatile
Of course, this goes to my local approx which is configured like:
volatile        http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile

So, I think I'm using a correct, up-to-date mirror OR the master site, right?

Anyway, the Release file I've downloaded looks something like:
Origin: volatile.debian.org
Label: debian-volatile
Suite: stable
Codename: lenny
Date: Sat, 29 Nov 2008 03:36:18 UTC
Architectures: amd64 alpha arm armel hppa i386 ia64 mips mipsel powerpc s390 
sparc
Components: volatile/main volatile/contrib volatile/non-free
Description: volatile.debian.org

Why exactly is the suite stable?  I'm trying to put together a mixed system, 
using pins.  In particular, I want stable+security+volatile to be at priority 
900 and testing+security+volatile to be at priority 700.

For stable+security+volatile I use:
Package: *
Pin: release a=stable
Pin-Priority: 900

For testing+security I use:
Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 700

and I was expecting that to cover volatile for testing as well.  Shouldn't 
that be the case?  If not, how should I pin the debian-volatile repository 
for testing?
