Subsequent to that email, I did verify that 1.13a-1 is apparently OK.
However, the changes between that and Lenny are too numerous to be
considered for migration to fix this bug.
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=510274#17
mgp has now been requested for removal from Lenny. The version in
unstable will then migrate after the Lenny release and possibly be
available via backports. Note that mgp is still orphaned, see #509644,
so someone would probably need to adopt it to arrange a backport.
