if by "stable" above, you're referring to debian stable, then no, sarge isn't 
in stable yet; sarge is in debian testing. 

i believe that the sarge install grabs whatever is currently in debian 
testing, since that's where sarge is. when sarge becomes the stable branch, 
then a debian install will grab it from there.
