The next release official release of GNU Radio will be 3.3, not
3.2.x., as the API has changed.  It will indeed take a while for this
to propagate through the Debian and Ubuntu release process.

However, it would be possible (as you mentioned) for Bdale to
cherry-pick the commits needed to implement the clock rate
configuration, and release the patched 3.2.2 into squeeze with this
very minor change.  I'm not sure if he's reading the list at the
moment, but I'll contact him about it.
