I thought that the fact that this one file plainly didn't work at all was sufficient reason for them to accept it but it appears that the entire package has to be unusable which is clearly not the case. :( However, I can try to provide backports, yes. That seems the best thing I can do, with current stable update policies. Would that be ok to you? I have generated my own package for the squeeze version+patch which should be fine for the time being. Thanks.
