You're stuck in this weird hole that we haven't figured a particularly good
way out of, which came up because multi-variant (sparc + x86) packages were
introduced halfway between releases.
Actually, the source of this problem is the inability of the plan
creation phase to back-track when it has a constraint violation.
The sat solver will fix this, and similar problems as long as a
solution exists - and if it doesn't, those pkgs won't get upgraded.
