I guess we can still come by with unstable:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/07/msg00007.html

"If your package needs to be updated for Lenny, and the version in
unstable doesn't contain extraneous changes (e.g, the version is the
same between testing and unstable), please upload your fix to
unstable and contact debian-release at lists.debian.org."
