Locking them in Synaptic will only effect upgrades done through
Synaptic.  Pinning the versions will prevent any of the utilities from
seeing the updates.

After you backlevel the following packages to the 9 release, create a new file 
called '/etc/apt/preferences' which contains everything between the following 
dotted lines:
-------------------------------------------------------

Package: libc6
Pin: release
Pin-Priority: 999

Package: libc6-dev
Pin: release
Pin-Priority: 999

Package: libc6-dev-i386
Pin: release
Pin-Priority: 999

Package: libc6-i386
Pin: release
Pin-Priority: 999

-----------------------------------------

When a fix for the issue is released, simply delete or rename
/etc/apt/preferences.
