I've got an open case with EMC/Legato on this very subject.
I've got volumes with savesets that still show "browsable" although the retention time (from your command) says they should have expired on 09/10/06. There is one case of a volume with 4 savesets written on 6/10/06 (Quarter retention). Two of the savesets show recyclable and the other 2 are browsable.

These issues almost always come down to a misunderstanding of how
retention policies and save set dependencies work.
Howard has explained perfectly what the original poster's problem is.
Yours is probably similar.
It is not the volume that expires, it is the save set. If the save set
depends on another save set in order to correctly allow a point in time
recovery to meet the specified retention policy, then it will not
expire, hence the volume containing it will not become recyclable.
