We actually do this all the time at work. We mostly work from debian stable or testing, but we need to build our binaries against Woody. I shall recommend the tool that was recommended to me when I started all of 4 months ago -- pbuilder. pbuilder unpacks a chroot image and lets you play inside it so you can build things the way you need, and then cleans up after itself when you're done. Its aware of the debian packaging system, so it can build source packages automatically, fetching build dependancies as necessary.
