The fixed version has been in unstable for two days already. 1.4.10 is a new 
upstream release but:

1. The only real change since 1.4.9.1 is the security fix mentioned above and 
updates to translations.
2. The big upstream tarball diff comes from the differences in *autogenerated* 
autotools stuff. However, autotools stuff is regenerated each time package is 
built anyway so these differences can be safely ignored.
3. Packaging diff from 1.4.9.1-3 to 1.4.10-1 is just a new debian/changelog 
entry.

Given the reasons above, please unblock amarok 1.4.10-1 and allow it to 
migrate to Lenny. You can of couse delay 1.4.10-1 migration a bit if you want 
since the security issue in question is not very critical.
