Ubuntu Jaunty including updates & proposed.

$ apt-cache policy gksu
gksu:
  Installed: 2.0.2-1ubuntu2
  Candidate: 2.0.2-1ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 2.0.2-1ubuntu2 0

If you have any other console commands to show relevant versions, I can put those in too.

I should also clarify a few things. First, Synaptic was just an example. This happens any time the gksu prompt appears. Second, I have thinkfinger integration enabled (via /usr/lib/pam-thinkfinger/pam-thinkfinger-enable), and gksu also gives up after a single finger swipe.
