I'm stumped.

According to the excuses, there's no reason for APT to not be moved to
"testing", as long as it doesn't depend on broken packages.

Well, apt-search shows that the unstable version of APT (0.5.4) has
these depends:

  Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.3-7), libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2

Now, on my "testing" system right now I already have
libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 installed, so that's no problem.

And, I have libc6 2.2.4-1, which is definitely >= 2.2.3-7.

So, I have no idea whatsoever why APT 0.5.4 hasn't migrated into testing
yet...
