Just on this point, the choices are to:
1) Update to the latest version
2) Leave the current version in squeeze (and add squeeze-ignore as
   required)
3) Remove the package from squeeze
4) Ask for backported fixes to address RC bugs.

All are valid options from a Release Team POV, so that's where the
consideration comes from.

Hope this helps with the understanding,
Neil
