I use etch/stable for the base system and the backuppc packages from
testing.  Best of both worlds.

You can do this with apt pinning (pin backuppc and libfile-rsyncp-perl
packages).

see http://wiki.debian.org/AptPinning

e.g. /etc/apt/preferences
<snip>
# testing backuppc
Package: backuppc
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 900

# testing libfile-rsyncp-perl
Package: libfile-rsyncp-perl
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 900
<snip>
