I've no sid machines, and would like to know the easiest way to get 7.6.112 on etch (mixed system or compilation)
install pbuilder set it up to build for etch default setup should be ok, except for the repository which is default hardcoded to japan, which you may not want.
then add deb-src for sid to your sources.list and apt-get source pike. then build the downloaded result with pbuilder.
no changes are needed to make it build (at least that was the case when i did it last month. as sid evolves that may change)
This may be outdated: http://www.gotpike.org/PikeWiki/index.pike?page=Installing%20Pike
for the most part that still appesrs to be correct.
