sorry, I have forgotten you and your problem. Which platform you running on i368 or amd64? Of course we can make such a testing package. It isn't so complicated as it's seems. All needed tools are available in the software repos. What you are willing in the near future then Wheezy is released? :-) We are planning one more update for the point release of Squeeze but that will be last for Squeeze, Wheezy comes with version 10.0.12-1, so your problem with your old hardware will again up on the screen.
