Well, now I'm flummoxed. Okay, here's a horribly roundabout method. Download the v.10 .deb and install it with dpkg. You'll probably get a bunch of missing dependency errors, which you can fix with apt-get. So something like this:

Code:
sudo gainroot
wget http://p.quinput.eu/debfarm/pool/xmms_1.2.10+20070601-1-maemo.10.n800_armel.deb
dpkg -i xmms_1.2.10+20070601-1-maemo.10.n800_armel.deb
# Probably lots of missing dependencies
apt-get install # the list of missing dependencies
It's an ugly brute-force method, but should get you started. You'll have to do something similar with the xmms-skins package since I noticed that the latest version is also forbidden.
