Then get the source of newer version and compile it yourself under
stable environment.

 http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-system.en.html#s-sourcebuild

This will avoid all library issues.  You may need to patch this source 
or upgrade other programs...  

You can get good binary and example source from http://www.backports.org/

This is not trivial thing.

Pinning works nicely on simple bash shell and doc packages but I am not
so much fan when it coms to binary C programs.
