The Debian packages of the later kernels depend on an later version of libc6, with all the further dependency implications. You will probably be able to use the kernels you compile yourself. For the rest, you could consider mixing stable and testing (through APT pinning.) MySQL 5 is definitely in testing and vim 7 will make it there eventually.
