It doesn't.
# dpkg -S as86
bin86: /usr/bin/as86
..the file /usr/bin/as86 is in package bin86. But that's only helpful on
a box where bin86 is already installed. So you would need to go to
http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages and search for as86 in the *second*
search thing on that page (people always mistakenly try the first one and
ask me why it doesn't work) - you want "Search the Contents of the Latest
Release". Type in "as86".
http://cgi.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=as86&case=insensitive&version=stable&arch=i386&directories=yes
Debian package contents search results
FILE PACKAGE
------------------------------------------------------------
usr/bin/as86 devel/bin86
usr/share/doc/bin86/examples/as86_encap devel/bin86
usr/share/man/man1/as86.1.gz devel/bin86
