I prefer Debian on my servers too, but running a mixed mode 
system with packages from stable, testing and possibly 
unstable will give you major headaches, when software depends 
on different library versions or even different libraries than
those already installed on your machine. 

Instead try www.backports.org, which offers a lot of
backported packages for stable. Right now their top news is :)

# I'm going to remove postgresql-8.0 from the backports.org 
# archive. It's was already removed from Debian, and the last 
# version of the Debian package which was available is vulnerable 
# to CVE-2006-2313 and CVE-2006-2314, hence the backport is 
# also affected.
# Please upgrade to the postgresql-8.1 backport.
