We're fully aware of that, and we're going to provide back-ports to 
squeeze when necessary. We're already maintaining a back-port repo for 
quite some time (e.g. for rsyslog and others) where we found squeeze 
packages to have flaws, and we're going to continue doing that for 
various security fixes as well.

It's on the way. Wheezy should have been released in January 2013 
already, but is due in summer according to latest rumorus, so it'll most 
likely be part of 3.1.
