Possibly the problem is that the build-dependency on a virtual package 
which is provided by multiple real packages.

binary dependencies are enforced by Policy to always be on real packages 
first, only as fallback on a virtual package.  This is not enforced for 
build-dependencies but the underlying problem of undeterministic 
behaviour in case of multiple solutions is similar.

...or perhaps (and hopefully!) it is simply lack of updating the package 
cache in the build environment.  What is it?  cowbuilder with sid + 
experimental suites?
