However, since the subject is Mint, have you considered the new Linux Mint Debian[1]? It's basically Mint on top of Debian instead of Ubuntu. The only issue you may have is that it's Gnome and 32-bit only (depending on how popular it is that will change, but rightly they're trying to do just one thing at a time). It's a rolling distro so it basically follows Debian Testing and doesn't have releases as such, as long as you install updates you'll always be on the latest code (for better or worse). On the face of it, that just sounds like Ubuntu but less stable :-)
There is an imminent release of Mint 10 debian version which will be 64bit.[1]
It can be changed to follow any branch of Debian I believe by modifying the sources for apt.
