Without having the full output of revdep-rebuild to hand, one can only guess. It's not a arch vs ~arch issue as 3.5.9-r4 is already stable, so I would guess that the one package that came up in the first revdep-rebuild is now pulling in the others in the second. What was that package? You also used revdep-rebuild -p, which re-uses the data from the last run of the program.
