Debian have a policy to backport critical security fixes to the
Subversion package in their supported OS releases - as do Ubuntu,
RedHat, SUSE, and others. Hence there is no need to panic, Debian
"lenny" won't reach EOL till 2012-04, cf.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian.

That said, there is merit in having a more up-to-date Subversion release
installed. For Debian, try backports.debian.org (shameless plug).
