Drawback: the libc6 version number is the same in slink and potato.
Unless apt isn't going in slink at all, it's not going to work at all
in slink in its current state (apt -f doesn't clear up the dependency
problems that the version ordering problem is causing).  So at least
the version number checking needs to be patched for apt in slink.
