I wasn't 100% sure which release he was referring to since he didn't say, and I probably didn't phrase my original question as clearly as I could have. But I asked another question about future plans and got a reply that pretty much answers that one:

Thanks for the quick answer!
Are you planning to incorporate the later ones at some stage?
As far as I am aware, there are no firm plans either way. Chances of them getting into sarge are infinitesimal. For etch, there is a possibility, at the discretion of the release managers, assuming release-critical bugs are filed. For lenny, we will either drop db4.2 entirely or apply the patches.
Please file bugs regarding the deficiencies that would be corrected by the application of the missing patches, if you wish to facilitate this process.
If you are unfamiliar with the bug reporting process, see http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting
If you have a use case which exposes the data loss corrected by the patch, list it and set the severity according to http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities
Hope this helps.
I replied that if I could pin down any specific problems I would file bug a report, but it probably makes more sense to move forward to 4.4.
4.5 would work too. although I'd personally prefer 4.6 if it is released by that time. ;)

Hello!
I have followed the thread, because we're upgrading to the lastest stable release of OpenLDAP, compiling from the sources. In the other hand, we're doing this on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and we have linking agaisnt db4-4.2.52-7.1.
Do you recommend compiling db4 4.5.20 from the sources and link OpenLDAP 2.3.32 agaisnt it ?
