Because you aren't allowed to ship modified pine binaries. See the thread
on debian-devel a few days ago for more information.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE read the past threads on this. You cannot ship
modified versions of pine binaries. Building pine without modification
on Debian will leave it broken

Because Debian has code modifications that seem to help it work with
Debian xterms and whatnot better, Pine's licence doesn't allow binary
redistribution of this nature.
