This is not an acceptable rationale for downgrading a bug.  ghc6 6.4.2-2 is
currently very badly wedged in unstable, and there is no guarantee that it
will make it to testing before release, particularly if bugs such as this
are hidden from view when trying to determine if a particular update is
release-critical.

Also, if the package relationships between ghc6 and libghc6-plugins-dev are
such that incompatible versions from sarge and etch can be installed
together, then the bug is still release-critical even if etch gets newer
versions of both packages.
