I expect that recompiling them will be as simple as downloading the Debian source package (with apt-get source) and building the deb with dpkg-buildpackage in scratchbox. I could try that, but I don't have the time to upgrade my Nokia 770 to OS2006 beta, so I couldn't test the packages...

In the meantime, why don't you create a new page on the Maemo wiki, say ApplicationCatalogWishlist2006? It's a wiki, everyone can do that.
