No, that patch actually DID fix the "rm -Rf /home" problem correctly. 
It is just that I had _two_ major problems to start with:

(1) the "critical" one in trac ticket 100 about "rm -Rf /home",
    (I reported this one in Debian BTS as #403454)

(2) the "important" bug about misdetection of "LABEL=" in /etc/fstab on
    debian because of hardcoded "/bin/cut" path (wrong path on debian) 
    see http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=37518492 
    (I did not report this one on Debian BTS yet. Should I?)

both have been fixed promptly in upstream.

I can run tests (one run per day -- big server, takes a long time) and give
feedback until 28 Dec; after that I'll be unavailable until end of January.

FYI, the server currently runs your mindi 2.20-1 recompiled for sarge with
only patches for above two problems, and it works ok.

But I'll be visiting LCA2007 in Sydney in mid-January, so direct
interrogation is an option :)
