That's not beyond likelihood, I agree. However, notice that already
Debian unstable does not include all the necessary dependencies, most

I separate out "does not include a dependent lib" from "contains
a dependent lib too old to use". The former is easier to deal with.
You tell the user "you'll need to build and install foolib and then
gnucash" whereas the latter means the user has to work around the
too-old lib in order to build gnucash.
FWIW, I just got done trying to compile G2 on a mixed testing/unstable
platform and it was basically impossible (or really annoying anyway)
without moving up to unstable. I suspect that the requirements for
building on stable would make for a really ugly mixed system and would
likely make people unhappy, if they could figure it out at all.
