Debian's "stable" does not mean that the packages's versions are
considered specially "stable".  It means the distro's packaging is
"stable", i.e. Debian considers that it's done a good job of packaging
those programs: they are built correctly, they have good dependency info
which makes sure upgrading/downgrading does the right thing, the default
configs are usable, the docs and various other files are placed where
Debian expects them to be, ...
