OK, scratch one mystery. gnu-smalltalk is listed under interpreters, which is a perfectly fine place for it.
However, the whereabouts of the stable and testing versions, particularly the former, is still a mystery. FYI, here's something from my system, referring to a version number of the package that is not in any of the archives (apparently).
