It is the intention of Integrics to pay third party developers to back 
port security and other critical fixes from Asterisk 1.8 to 1.6.1 for as 
long as any Enswitch customer runs 1.6.1. Many of our customers are very 
conservative about upgrading (a large minority still run 1.4), so I 
would expect this to be for at least two years, maybe more. We're very 
happy to release these back ports to the community for free. This is not 
a hard guarantee, but is a statement of intent.

The two existing security patches are available for download from:

http://download.integrics.com/asterisk/1.6.1.25-1.diff
http://download.integrics.com/asterisk/1.6.1.25-2.diff

if anyone needs them in future.
