The html-code for this part is: <DT><CODE>serious</CODE> <DD>is a <a href="http://release.debian.org/etch_rc_policy.txt">severe violation of Debian policy</a> (roughly, it violates a "must" or "required" directive), or, in the package maintainer's opinion, makes the package unsuitable for release. So, obviously http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities defines that "severe violation of Debian policy" means anything referenced in the etch_rc_policy-document.
