For anyone who doesn't want to wait for the final release, this is the changeset you need:

http://www.sudo.ws/repos/sudo/rev/d0866ee5f190

Clone the repository with Mercurial. Export the above changeset (d0866ee5f190) as a patch.

Use apt-get source to grab the sources for sudo from the appropriate repo. Also run 'apt-get build-dep sudo' to get the build dependencies.

Apply the patch (from Hg) to the Debian sources.

"dch -i". Update the version number to identify it as a locally-generated version (I used 1.8.2-2philpem1).

"debuild -us -uc"

Install the resulting package with "dpkg -i sudo_{blah}.deb". Ignore sudo-ldap; you probably want normal sudo (you'll know if you need sudo-ldap).

Took me about 15 minutes but fixed the bug nicely on my laptop (which uses ecryptfs-encrypted home directories).
