http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=amanda-client lists the latest lenny version as 1:2.5.2p1-4 (the version I am running).
No lenny is maintained until Feb next year - and not listed there - I just looked at http://archive.debian.org/README

The fix almost certainly never migrated to lenny. The security team only backport release-critical fixes to oldstable. There is no instance of amanda in security.d.o for lenny. There is no instance of amanda in backports.d.o for lenny. The "fix" is to compile with IPv6 disabled. If upgrading to Debian 6 (current stable) is not an option, recommend simply rolling your own amanda .debs with that ./configure option set.
