Hi,
I only did install the needed dev packages and dependencies from
unstable.
Building jwmtools did work for those apps:
rocketmouse@debi386:/usr/src/jwmtools$ dpkg -L jwmtools | grep bin/
/opt/jwmtools/0.1/bin/slock
/opt/jwmtools/0.1/bin/sysmonitor

Backports is special because there is no guarantee

Why bother with rebooting? Mount Debian root (and /var) filesystem
somewhere, don't forget bind mount /proc, chroot into it, do the needed
thing.
