We have difficulties to take such patches currently - because we're
base-freeze period until new version Debian/sarge will be released.
It's hard to put new patch, and even upload new .debs by us...
Recently sarge is getting closer state than the previous one. Once
sarge will be released, we can upgrade our glibc to the latest version
(which should fix your problem) as soon as possible.
