There are a lot of weird corner cases where the source and binary versions differ (as is currently the case for dpkg). aptitude doesn't attempt to cover them all.
The proper solution would be for the binary package to contain a reference to its source version. I've heard through the grapevine that this proper solution is planned in the future, so I'm not really interested in cramming short-term hacks into aptitude to cover this situation. Daniel
