The mp3 encoder is patented outside of the context of the software
license for that particular program.

This has been true thoughout the history of Sarge. And Sarge released
June 2005. It has subsequently been replaced with Etch released April
2007. You really should consider upgrading to Etch at least before
Lenny releases. :-)
That depot has been moved around to various places over the last
few years. It seems to be at a permanent home now at
www.debian-multimedia.org.
