Hmm; it seems I had quite the brainfart when I re-upgraded this bug report
-- I somehow did not realize we were talking about sysv-rc, the standard
runlevel manager in Debian, and thought this was a discussion about file-rc
or some *other* runlevel manager package.

Since sysv-rc is obviously the default runlevel manager in Debian and
millions of people use it, if no one has yet reported breakage as a result
of not sourcing .sh scripts, my concern about this breaking "unrelated
packages or the whole system" is invalid.  Downgrading again, with
apologies.

Cheers,
