For my own backports I have been changing the debhelper version dependency in the debian/control file to specify the woody version. I have not backported debhelper. This process has worked pretty well so far.
This will (obviously) break when packages actually use features that were introduced with debhelper 4. "dh_shlibs -s" is a notable example of this, that hits a fair number of packages.
Wouldn't it be a bug in the package if it build-depended on debhelper 4, but didn't actually use any features not available in debhelper 3[in which case it should build-depend on debhelper 3]?[and I have debhelper 4.1.52 and dh_shlibs isn't on my system...]
