Well, I thought you know how Debian works. Yes of course, they won't stay
for 2 years with an unpatched version. Just look at the changelog of the
php5 package for example:
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/p/php5/php5_5.2.0-8+etch1/changelog

Seems so, see change in build 8:
| Backported a patch from upstream CVS to fix a rather nasty
| memory leak in zend_alloc (closes: #402506).
