It's unstable we are talking about. If the uploaded package has dependencies on packages in experimental due to the uploader's environment (which includes using aptitude's b-d resolver), then we can always schedule binNMUs to fix it. If it's a more general problem, we could either make sure the dependencies also migrate to unstable or fix the broken package in another way.
