Unfortunately, I believe the buildds are allowed to basically pick a
random choice among a string of alternatives.  (I think the logic goes
that the buildd may already have one of the packages installed, and hence
the dependency may be satisfied before something like apt gets at it.)

It's probably a bit safer to use just the dependency for unstable and ask
people doing backports to locally modify the build dependency.
