And just to belabor the point a little, the problem is that this dependency isn't actually met, because php5-cgi is installed at an earlier version. This is an inherent limitation of the greedy resolver in apt, which aptitude uses when you run, e.g., "install". I'm pretty sure this was filed as a bug against apt, but I can't find the specific bug report. Maybe my memory is faulty. If you can confirm that you see the same dependencies that I do, I could reassign it to apt; it might be possible to fix some simple cases of this by just scanning the dependency list twice.
