Theoretically, yes... but it turns out that many testing users have
emacs-snapshot because they install it from unstable.  And since I
also provide emacs-snapshot for stable releases (for sarge now, for
etch later), the package will be usable for *some* users.

On the other hand, Bongo is a rapidly moving target at the moment
and the package will soon be obsolete so I won't mind too much if
you think it should be removed from testing.

The other alternative would be to allow the current sid version to
enter testing since it supports emacs21.  I haven't tried asking for
a freeze exception since it's a completely new upstream release with
lots of changes...
