If anyone is running debian sarge (or even lenny, which came after
sarge), they have other problems.  Those versions of the debian
operating system have not been maintained for years, and i'm sure that
there are outstanding critical bugs in that software.

We should not avoid anything for the sake of compatibility if "Debian (<
sarge)" is the main concern.  The onus should be on people running those
systems connected to the modern network to deal with their own problems.
