I have just taken over comaintenance of the freeradius package with a friend. We have found and fixed this bug (in svn), although not yet uploaded to unstable. If you would like to test the new version to make sure that all of the problems of this sort are fixed, yuou can get it from svn.debian.org/wsvn/collab-maint/ext-maint/freeradius (I think you only need svn+ssh if you want to modify - I'm fairly sure it's world readable). I'm not discouraging you from filing the bug, mind you - just letting you know we are aware of it and actively trying to fix it.
