It's also easily reproducible with a `mk-build-dep` in

-i the build-dep and have aptitude [1] resolve it

[1] aptitude -y --without-recommends -o Dpkg::Options::=--force-confold -o

I used this method to reproduce the issue for current gnome-shell/experimental.
The trigger seems to be the usage of non-default-versions in the SolutionCost,
using the default ("safety, priority") like e.g. pbuilder does results in
aptitude successfully finding a solution.

Note for future handling of this bug:

#418385 contains some hint on the use of -y that prevents some "cutoff"
measures to kick in, affecting pbuilder.

Not sure if it's related or not, but just a note to explore in the
future.
