I want to build something (as in I can get a tar.gz source package) for an old release so I can use it on a site with that (old) release.
When I have done this I've created a virtual machine of the right version and done the work there.
In my cases I've then just copied the binaries across manually although someone more knowledgeable than me would probably have built the packages and copied them across properly.
This method worked for me to upgrade bash on a couple of old VMs that couldn't be upgraded, but not for more fundamental packages (libc).
