Hey how you doing?
I was in a similar situation as you. I installed the stable Debian etch and I
required a few new packages. The best way to go about this is to compile them
from source. It can get quite a bit tedious at times but here are a few tips:

Running an etch system I nonetheless may want to install a testing
package or two.
If I use pinning, I have a clue about how to go about it, and have
seen a debian wiki page about that.
But I really could use a more general education on how to safely mix a
few testing pkgs into a stable system.
