I just ran across this bug (because of perlipq having unsatisfiable
build-depenencies in testing) and it seems it has been closed in the
version currently in wheezy and jessie but not in the version currently
in sid. It seems that the package in testing added breaks for
squeeze-wheezy updates and added a provides and shlibs rules to
facilitate wheezy-(future release that contains the package currently in
sid, presumablly jessie) updates.
AIUI debian does not support upgrades that skip a release. It's not
clear to me from the bug log if all packages in wheezy that use
libxtables were rebuilt after the provides/shlibs stuff was added.
Can someone who is familiar with these issues determine if any further
action regarding this issue is needed on the sid package before it
migrates to jessie and either take such action (if needed) or mark this
as fixed in the sid version (if not needed).
