It checks the User-Agent string.

It probably means that the machine is dedicated to being p.d.o and
runs no other services.

 How can the machine make sure that the person which accesses the 
 machine is either a user or a developer of Debian?

It is probably thought that the fact that somebody wishes to look up a
package on p.d.o. implicitly implies that this somebody must be Debian
user or developer.

I guess the original only runs this service should be parsed as
there's no additionally ftp server, archive or whatever on this
machine.

Reading the whole message on debian-devel-announce seems to suggest this
interpretation.

Didn't such things use to be static and cronjob-maintained? Chances

should have been something like:
This is the only debian user/developer service running on this machine
