sure looks like there's a cycle among thunderbird and enigmail, but I can't tell about the -dev packages either, and I'm not sure I know how to look today. But that cycle is the knot I'm talking about, yes.
I do think building the blocking-based-on directed graph and looking for cycles would identify these kinds of things.
I don't think you have to write a hints file -- you could just write debian-release at lists dot debian dot org to ask them to look at it, if you think that the cycle is the problem. But it's really something to write the Debian maintainers of thunderbird about.
