Why do you believe so?  As far as I remember the problem, it will be
triggered when the sarge package is removed (instead of upgraded).
Since this will be the case when upgrading to etch (I think the
explanation is in the bug report), it's a problem for etch.

I haven't had time to think about this and do any coding.  But I believe
it can only be solved by a upload *to*sarge*, because during etch
upgrade there won't be a fallback maintainer script from a new version.
The upload I did on this was rejected by the stable release manager.  I
always wanted to raise this issue again, now that there are new persons
on this position.  However, I think there was also a technical problem
with the previous upload, therefore I didn't have time to actually do it.
