That's quite annoying. They are fixed since ages in sid and my own
packages for sarge at

deb http://people.debian.org/~frankie/debian/sarge/ ./

which I strongly suggest to anyone having DoS problems due to a subtle
bug open since release time (and fixed very recently by upstream). 
Sarge package is simply broken and should not be used (even with the two
SQL flaws fixed) with mod_delay on. But mod_delay shouldn't stay off.

I pointed both bugs at the very start of july (or end of june?) 
to both stable and testing secteams and sent at least 3 mails about the topic
with patches and analysis for sarge, sid and woody. 
When secteam will judge it useful, they'll do that. 
Last time, I did wait months for that, for yardradius package. 
If you know something useful to accellerate the process, i'd like to know...
