No package file will cause "fai-setup" (and "make-fai-nfsroot" which is called 
from fai-setup) to fail completly - in the standard-configuration (as 
suggested in the documentation and postinst) from fai 2.8.3.  (Obviously that 
failure can easily be fixed, but it's also unneccassary as we are aware of it 
now.)

The relevant line from /etc/fai/sources.list is:

deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US sarge/non-US main contrib non-free


So I would either suggest a empty package file for non-US for the time of 
etch, or - imho better - another upload of fai.

What do you think ?
