[LAU] Ardour/Jack on Debian 5.0

I'm still on Debian "etch" here, getting ready to upgrade to lenny, and
I have noticed many here talking about audio work on lenny.

However, apparently Ardour is no longer in the distro, and Jack is a
version which is considered buggy upstream according to the
recommendations on the Ardour download page online. (And presumably
every Jack-enabled audio app in Debian is compiled against this buggy
version...yuck.)

What's the most common/recommended way for Debian users to keep their
DAW working these days on lenny? I can't switch the machine over to
Ubuntu right now because I need to upgrade in place with no reinstalls.
It was encouraging to see some of you talking about audio work on lenny,
so I assume there is some way around this?
