AES encryption for NFS4 in Debian Squeeze?



Hello guys!
I'm not sure this is a right list to write to, but its a security
related topic. I'm setting up secure NFS4 on Debian Squeeze machines
and I'm totally surprised that NFS4 still requires insecure and
obsolete des-crc-cbc encryption method as the only option.

The good news are that its already fixed upstream [1], both in kernel
and nfs-utils and there is even a clean patch for linux-2.6.32 which
is Squeeze is based on. Is there a possibility to port these changes
to Debian Squeeze?
