Same problem. IMHO, aptitude should forbid all versions up to the
forbidden version, not just the forbidden version. This would match
a bit more the description, i.e. only newer versions will be
automatically installed.

  "F":  Forbid a package from being automatically upgraded to          ▒
        a particular version; newer versions will be automatically     ▒
        installed.                                                     ▒

BTW, it seems that when I hit 'U', the forbidden packages are not
selected as to be upgraded yet (they are still in white). The problem
can be seen only after dependency/conflict resolution.
