Xfree 3.3.6 for slink has been available for some time. It was
packaged and made available unofficially by Vincent Renardias.

>From Vincent's announcement of January 14th last:

  For apt users the appropriate sources.list line is: 
  deb http://www.debian.org/~vincent/ xfree-update main

  It can also be downloaded directly from
  http://www.debian.org/~vincent/dists/xfree-update/main/binary-i386/

I used apt-get to upgrade from 3.3.4 and everything worked very
smoothly,
