I can't reproduce it any more after my upgrade. However I kept copy of
most files requested except the *.bin. They are here:
http://people.debian.org/~hertzog/432411.tar.gz

1798e34b2ea77cec9ab40dd0d3f6d36f  432411.tar.gz

The bug really looks like the resolver is ignoring the installed package
as a package of its own that can be kept to resolve a problem. Maybe it's
deliberate in some part of the analysis but somehow the error is not
appropriately handled.
