I am working for the french governement and currently we have only EAL-4 for around 30 packages from Debian GNU/Linux v3.0 (WOODY) reached. The rest (~450) of the selected Packages are in EAL-3. Our goal is to reach EAL-5 not only for Servers but Workststions to. Maybe in the middle of the next year we will create a public mirror.

Actually I think he was asking about the software being certified for military use. I don't believe this has been done, however, I know that postgresql was included in a recent (I believe DOD) report about open source software being PostgreSQL is use in several branches of the government.
