AFP Out Of Date In OS X Lion

Does anybody know what's the latest news (if any) on Netgear releasing an update with a working netatalk, or at least some estimate based on past experiences with how quickly they respond to things like this? Lion is already Golden Master now, and it looks likely that it's going to be released this upcoming week. I have a mixed network, so the patched binary that locks out previous versions of OSX is not a solution for me, and the thought of not being able to make Time Machine backups anymore (especially after a major OS upgrade) is disturbing. The ability to do TM backups over SMB/NFS seems to be gone as well (regardless of the protocol I used to access the share, it errors out telling me the drive doesn't support the AFP interface required by TM).
