yeah.  if you want to be extra nice, you can add the tag "sarge" to
the bug report to notify the developer that it's a bug in the sarge
version. you can also add "sid" if it hasn't yet been fixed in unstable.

after the developer fixes it in unstable they can remove the sid tag,
and the bug can then remain open and tagged sarge for posterity.  you can
also add the "upstream" tag, and include the url to the upstream bug
report for reference.
