Because that is what they had in 'testing' when they released Debian 3.0r0
(woody) back in July 2002. Currently their 'testing' aka sarge has XFree86 4.2.1
plus patches (...-12.1) which is scheduled to be made their 'stable' release
possibly in Feburary I believe.

Debian's Changelog for XFree86 4.2.1
<http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/x/xfree86/xfree86_4.2.1-12.1/changelog>

I don't understand the Debian policy but it would be nice if at least 4.3.0 was
included in their release of sarge as stable next month.
