downgrade sh to 3.1 - debian lenny - how?

Hello,

i'd need to downgrade sh to the latest 3.1 version, been trying to pin the version in apt preferences or use aptitude but it doesn't want to work. (Best possible to GNU bash, version 3.1.17(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu))

Code:
Linux version 2.6.26-2-amd64 (Debian 2.6.26-19lenny2) (dannf@debian.org) (gcc version 4.1.3 20080704 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-25)) #1 SMP Thu Nov 5 02:23:12 UTC 2009

Code:
root:/etc/apt# sh --version
GNU bash, version 3.2.39(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
