sysstat (8.1.6-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
+ Daily data files format has changed again.
+ NFS v4 support added to sar -n (closes: #434442);
+ All sysstat commands are made consistent with how parameters are
interpreted: "COMMAND <interval>" now generates a report continusouly,
"COMMAND <interval> 0" causes an error, "COMMAND 0" displays a report
since system startup (closes: #475707);
+ Option -S added to sadc, which replaces previous options -I or -d. Existing
defaults file should be updated.
* Standards-Version: 3.8.0 (no changes).
* Merge the following change from Ubuntu:
- remove call to execvp() as it's not needed and has potential
security problems.
*

I just verified that sysstat will build in a clean intrepid chroot with no source changes. Assuming the backport team approves I think this will be fairly easy. I'll see if I can upload an initial build to my PPA while once I finish reading through the backport documentation.
