The package will depend on a python-support version >= the version
it was builded with.  So there is no chance to trick dpkg - you
just have to rebuild the package for Etch.  Regarding the fact that
you wrote in private mail that the number of potential users is
below 5 I would suggest you try a local rebuild.

Kind regards
