Debian's packages can be downloaded and used by anyone, even without 
having Debian as OS. Even Windows' users can do it.

That's similar to downloading and using the upstream archive of 
Syslinux, whichever OS you are using.

The upstream official archive of Syslinux 6.04-pre1 is the latest 
"successfully-working" available at this moment (in comparison to 
6.04-pre2 and 6.04-pre3, that will fail). Debian's packages located 
either in the "Testing" repository or in the "Unstable" repository, are 
more up-to-date than upstream's 6.04-pre1, and they are not a complete 
failure (in contrast to upstream's 6.04-pre2 and 6.04-pre3).

All things considered, I definitely wouldn't call Debian's packages 
"worthless" for non-Debian users.

The current status of development of Syslinux leaves users with very 
few pragmatical choices (if/when we limit ourselves to Syslinux).
