On today's upgrade of my lenny box I noticed the following message in

that's a non-bug which has been reported already as #487926.
the explanation: this messages is caused by the "compat hacks" file,
which says
;; This file provides a number of hacks that are necessary for MMM
;; Mode to function in different Emacsen. MMM Mode is designed for
;; FSF Emacs 20 and 21, but these hacks usually enable it to work
;; almost perfectly in Emacs 19 and XEmacs 20 or 21.
and the code in question is inactive in newer emacsen. nothing to worry
about.
i'll have a look at cutting out the relevant code (19.28 hasn't been part
of debian for ages).
regards
az
