For development I'd (strongly) suggest to do drop a file
/etc/apt/preferences.d/01-lintian.pref
containing
Package: lintian
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 605
provided that Squeeze supports this /etc/apt/preferences.d way - if not
add this to your normal /etc/apt/preferences that should contain something
like
Package: *
Pin: release a=stable
Pin-Priority: 501
Package: *
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 50
Package: *
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 5
Once you might have done this please check
apt-cache policy lintian
It should give lintian from unstable preference. Alternatively you
can explicitely do
sudo apt-get install -t unstable lintian
(always provided your sources.list has an entry for unstable).
Please check again the lintian report with a recent lintian.

Because of using lintian from stable.
