Me too.

I've just been to ARM HQ and they are keen to help get the necessary work done on the port to enbable it for lenny. Expect offical mail on that subject soon. If there is anyone with the relevant expertise (e.g people who can do the work needed for the gfortran transition, or a desire to fix haskell or move mozilla transition along so we can have trunk version in lenny (Is that remotely feasible? - I have no idea)) then please make yourselves known and say what you need. If it is faster build hardware and/or money to let you concentrate on this issue rather than others then that should be available. It's nice to see ARM wanting to actively help. They will need direction in terms of how best to apply what resources they have (not huge, but much better than before).
