There's a package of 3.5.8 at debs.fuller.edu that was made by Dermot
Bradley. He'd said it couldn't be part of Debian itself because of
licensing problems, I presume this applied to it being part of non-free
as well but I didn't investigate.
I used his diff to make a local 3.5.9 package with little effort last
fall. Here's a simple patch I'd applied on top of it.
