It's strange to me this is even an issue that's being argued, I would assume that a Debian package maintainer would be responsible enough to keep up with the latest stable releases of whatever they have taken on to maintain.
Back in the real-world, the biggest problem is that 0.6 and 0.8 use completely different build systems, replacing waf with gyp (both for building node and native modules). I'm sure you can appreciate and respect the depth of this problem alone. Please review the changes (published 6 months ago): https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/API-changes-between-v0.6-and-v0.8 Rick
