Sarge? You mean, Sarge, the oldstable? Why would you want that? All
right, that's none of my business. :)

Create a backport, following the usual procedure - download the sources
with "apt-get source firebird2.0" (requires presence of a deb-src line,
pointing to unstable in sources.list).

cd firebird2.0-$current_version
dch -v "$current_version~~sarge1"
# two ~'s to allow for other backports, for example for etch
debuild -us -uc
# resulting packages are in ../

Remember to report here if it works :)
