   I would say that in general it would be a better idea to use the   
   Slackbuild script together with sources to try to build the package from   
   current on your stable installation. As you say, kernel and library   
   versions might differ. Those differences might cause the new version not   
   to build, but if it builds it is good hope that the built binary will   
   work. If it doesn't build, I would start by comparing the Slackbuild   
   scripts between stable and current, maybe some new feature has been   
   enabled which needs to be disabled on stable?
