I use this workaround:

Usually I have unstable commented out in sources.list. If I want to install
a single package from slink re-add it to sourcec.list, run "apt-get update
&& apt-get install <package>" remove it from sources.list and rerun "apt-get
update".

It's not perfect, since new packages from slink are listed as orphaned, but
I can live with it.
