How would I verify that -3 is known to the tracker?  It's not in

Well, perhaps.  But the debsecan source knows the unstable_version that 
fixes the vulnerability.  So I don't see how that matters.

Maybe you thought I was suggesting that we rip out the entire existing 
is_vulnerable decision and replace it with what you quoted above?  I 
just meant to change the evaluation of versions _other_ than 
unstable_version.
