Quite simple, the -exp build is with experimental patches to the
infrastructure that needed extensive testing. That testing is only now
finishing, so any packages that were built before that could not be used
for anything else until the patches were in a state to be ready to be
committed. I might upload the 6-exp packages as 6-stable this weekend,
but I have to look at in which state they are in first.
