The source was in testing, at the same version as the binaries claim as their source; but the binaries in testing didn't match the binaries in unstable. It happens when testing has old binaries for that package on that arch, when an arch-specific binary recompile happens on the arch (binNMU), and when debs get removed on an arch in unstable, without their source getting removed too.
