I guess I reported it too soon. I seen another bug report about problems with having two backports modules installed at the same time and it seems that it was my problem, too. I used Synaptic to uninstall the nonPAE backport, then installed the PAE backport module and it installed without any issues. Pleas kill this bug report.

Thanx and sorry for wasting your time,
