There is no package version number in the bug report, but it does look
like the submitter is using testing/unstable, which means his fam
program has already been patched for #234787.

There's no guarantee of that; he may have still been running the version
that released with sarge.  Jamin, can you please confirm?

The system in question was following testing up until sarge's release. At that time the apt/preferences file on it was updated so that stable (sarge) should take precedence:

$ cat /etc/apt/preferences
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=stable
Pin-Priority: 900

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=testing
Pin-Priority: 400

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 300

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: -1

I'm fairly certain the version of fam that was installed was 2.7.0-6 as that's the version that still has an entry in /var/lib/dpkg/status:

$ apt-cache policy fam
fam:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 2.7.0-6
  Version Table:
     2.7.0-7 0
        400 ftp://forseti testing/main Packages
        300 ftp://forseti unstable/main Packages
     2.7.0-6 0
        900 ftp://forseti stable/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
