It happens on very old bans. They lost their PR and being indexed in Google. Then all of a sudden the PR pops back up and they still aren't indexed. Not sure if it's a bug in the PR algo that doesn't account for banned sites. Nonetheless I've seen it on a couple old sites I owned that had a ban back in 2003. They had PR popup in 2006 for some reason but never got indexed again. It's a somewhat common occurence for older banned sites but I can't link to other forums to show you some examples.
My guess is they got banned many years ago and just haven't gotten back in.
