No. The bug severity was inflated: the memory leak does not make the
package unusable, it's at most an important bug. In addition there has
been another upstream release between Squeeze and the version I uploaded
today and larger changes in the packaging. I don't have to try to know
the release team would reject this.
The only way to fix the memory leak in stable would be to prepare (and
test) a targeted patch against the current version there.
