Just to add:
Personally I'm in favor of just using the current intrepid version. It has seen a round of testing now, and less changes mean less chances to break.
Some test-cases for the bugs:
TEST CASE 1, concerning bug #263773:
Test the following on an 32bit system (e.g. i386). Unfixed, it will give random results (should be: inode number)
<code>
import System.Posix.Files
main = do
System.Posix.Files.getFileStatus "/" >>= print . System.Posix.Files.fileID
</code>
TEST CASE 2, concerning bug #270601 is listed in that bug.
For the watcher.sh/printing s.th. every 10 minutes: Most probably it won't build on sparc due to timing out (see bug #194912, prior to that change it needed manual buildd admin intervention).
