I've also noticed this on a number of package pages, with same criteria
as above, arch=all and short depends list. Some more examples:
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/ash
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libjs-jquery
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/python-minimal
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/xserver-common
Affected browsers include chromium, epiphany, iceweasel, and firefox.
