As far as I am aware, there are no firm plans either way.  Chances of
them getting into sarge are infinitesimal.  For etch, there is a
possibility, at the discretion of the release managers, assuming
release-critical bugs are filed.  For lenny, we will either drop db4.2
entirely or apply the patches.

Please file bugs regarding the deficiencies that would be corrected
by the application of the missing patches, if you wish to facilitate
this process.

If you are unfamiliar with the bug reporting process, see
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting

If you have a use case which exposes the data loss corrected by
the patch, list it and set the severity according to
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities

Hope this helps.
