I suspect so. Specifying an unknown package would result in:
| dpkg-query: no packages found matching does-not-exist
but specifying a binary package for which no version info is available
results in the sash case with libc6-dev.
Here's a workaround, tested successfully on amd64, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64:
| $ dpkg-query -f '${source:Package} (= ${source:Version}),\n' -W zlib1g-dev
libc[0-9.]*-dev|grep -v '(= ),$'|xargs
| eglibc (= 2.17-97), zlib (= 1:1.2.8.dfsg-1),
