Public bug reported:

If a package exists in ${DEVELOPMENT_RELEASE}-proposed and
${DEVELOPMENT_RELEASE}, syncpackage and requestsync give different
results.  Syncpackage checks against -proposed be default, while
requestsync checks against proposed only if a package doesn't exist in
-release.  At the time I did these requests, 1.1.2-1 was in raring-
proposed:

$ requestsync -d experimental shiboken
W: Target release missing - assuming raring
Consider using syncpackage(1) for syncs that do not require feature freeze 
exceptions.
Currently the bug report looks like:
Summary (one line):
Sync shiboken 1.1.2-2 (universe) from Debian experimental (main)

Description:
Please sync shiboken 1.1.2-2 (universe) from Debian experimental (main)
