This may be the bug:
Package: perl-base
Version: 5.6.0-21
Essential: yes
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.1-2)
This should be a Pre-Depends.
Please report this as a grave bug.

Hello.
Yesterday I have upgraded my 20-computer lab to woody.
This was not a FAI-like "completely automated upgrade" but I used
several tricks to make things easier.
I used a local mini-distribution to make /var/lib/dpkg/available much
smaller and reduce dpkg's load.

Do you actually have a line in /etc/apt/sources.list saying "sarge"?
If not, I recommend that you drop your apt.conf entirely and modify
