Just uploaded 0.1.9-1+squeeze1 (only added the + to the version-number
for nice-looking/reading ;))

Assuming it was always built in a clean chroot it was never built with
any kernel-headers as those were not installed in the path the Makefile
was looking in. Just build-tested it in cowbuilder and seems fine.
Diff is here:
 http://pinky.die-welt.net/~evgeni/tmp/v86d-CVE-2011-1070-oldstable%2bkernel.diff

said that, i'm pretty confident that there are about zero v86d users in
oldstable (it's designed for desktops where you usually do not run
oldish releases, esp with outdated binary drivers)
