Question about installing a deadbolt/door knob...

I was installing a new deadbolt and door knob and noticed that this part of the lock http://i.imgur.com/GOWNjKh.png (colored in red) is kind of loose because the screws don't really have a lot to screw into since the door is old and has had many locks installed and removed over the years. It doesn't really seem like a problem, and the lock functions fine, but I was wondering if there's anything I can use to like, fill the door in so the screws have something to hold on to.

Thanks!
