I think this is because Squeeze was being prepared for release, so
everybody was revolving around that goal. I believe situation has
changed, and that most of these packages have been synced by now and
that they are at least in experimental. If anything, I learned from
this process is that Ubuntu *does* push back the changes.

I even made a "deps check" http://paste.debian.net/plain/105221 but
please be *aware* this was almost a month ago. For instance now you're
able to find compiz-core 0.9.2.1+git20110226.f059fae9-4 in
experimental.

I'll redo the whole process by the end of this week, will let you know
of the results.
