I would strongly suggest you to "upgrade" to a recent kernel from one of the listed repos, it can be done without any issues on the guest (except that it requires a reboot to load the new kernel), the 3.2 kernel from Beng works fine for me on both Debian Squeeze and Debian Wheezy. Its also possible to upgrade from Squeeze to Wheezy with this repo configured without any issues for the guests. I didnt encounter any specific issues from upgrading from Squeeze to Wheezy on VServer containers but you still can hit the same issues as on a non container system such as scripts not well coded that doesnt like to be ran on php5.4 or htaccess files with deprecated syntax on Apache2.4 or custom compiled tools that rely on old versions of libraries that gets removed as not used anymore. One specific point is Dovecot that had some of its configuration parameters changed which could make a "simple" upgrade impossible.
