They should be harmless, but also I don't think they really matter, so I
don't think it's really worth the effort to pull them up. Neither apply
except to people who aren't using either module-assistant or
kernel-package, so we're talking about an extremely limited audience. I
committed them to 256.xx with the intention of leaving them there for the
post-squeeze packages and hadn't been planning on pulling them up.
