I think it's a bug that the bts doesn't use dist=unstable by default.  I'm
not sure if it's actually been reported against debbugs, though.

I'm pretty sure that the list exported by the bts does take dist=unstable
into account.

Uh, 20031008-1.1 is the version in sarge.  And so far, the BTS has only
recorded that it's reported in 20051206-1 and 20051206-2, whereas testing
has 20051102-2.  So the bug is at least not reported to affect either sarge
or etch at this point.
