That's a good idea, but there are several bugs fixed since then, including 
security bugs, and I'm not sure how hard backporting the fixes would be.

It would seem rather irresponsible just to upload a package with known 
security problems...OTOH, 1.7-b3 is definitely better than what is 
currently there.

Have you tried using CVS recently? It is pretty stable, but I suppose that 
loading this into Debian now is probably not a good idea.

I would be happy to review the logs since 1.7b3 to try to find security 
fixes that can be backported, if you like.
