Out of interest, how did you identify these "oldest issues"? I happened to
spend some time on proposed-migration on Thursday, and all of the packages I
worked on are older than the oldest package on your list, AFAICS. (The
*youngest* package I worked on was node-object-inspect, which is currently
208 days old.)

This package has since migrated. I guess someone did retrigger and it
passed.

Please don't be shy about retriggering because of the queues; the tests get
run eventually...
