It works in tetex-bin 1.0.7-1 and above; you can just use xdvi on
compressed files directly. Unfortunately there were bugs in the xdvi
that was about to make it into potato and decompression support had to
be temporarily removed.

I guess you could try taking just the /usr/X11R6/bin/xdvi from the
tetex-bin package in unstable (you can extract packages manually with
dpkg-deb -x, see the man page), putting that in /usr/local/bin, and
seeing if that works.
