The machine in question was a Debian/unstable machine, which I no
longer use very much, and keeping it in unstable would need time to
maintain it. So, for this machine, I want to progressively upgrade it
to squeeze. That's why I now track the testing distribution; otherwise
I would have to downgrade packages, which is not supported.
Moreover, with the current status of module-init-tools, it seems
that the broken version will get into squeeze anyway (at least,
there doesn't seem to be anything to prevent that) if the problem
on HPPA isn't fixed.
