Soory. No currently I can not reproduce it again. At least not with my current system.
I think I could reproduce installing from a clean stable, and add testing to apt. Now install etckeeper, init etckeeper, change someting, and update another package from testing. But I assume this is to much work for this little problem, right? Unless you are interested I think you can close the bug.
