I've made packages for my woody system(s):
/pub/debian/dists/woody-ol2.2/source/Qmail/qmail-scanner_1.22-8.diff.gz
/pub/debian/dists/woody-ol2.2/source/Qmail/qmail-scanner_1.22-8.dsc
/pub/debian/dists/woody-ol2.2/source/Qmail/qmail-scanner_1.22-8_i386.changes
/pub/debian/dists/woody-ol2.2/source/Qmail/qmail-scanner_1.22.orig.tar.gz

They have this fix. The problem is that SUID perl script should NOT
run '/usr/bin/suidperl' but only '/usr/bin/perl' (but be suid).

In my package, I fix this and a whole lot more. I see no reason why the
building of the 'binary' package shouldn't work on sarge...
