Kind-of. The BTS isn't (yet) clever enough to tell britney (the testing scripts; which aren't included in dak atm) everything she needs to know, so britney guesses instead. It could be made more accurate, but there's no real point: the number of RC bugs in packages really do need to drop to zero sooner or later, anyway. As far as glibc's concerned, it's being kept out of testing until it's working reasonably, which could be decades away, the way things are going.
