I am preparing a fixed version of sysvinit.  I would like to have it
uploaded before the archive is updated this evening.  Please test and
let me know if it work or help with your problem.  Here are the
current list of changes done to it.

sysvinit (2.86.ds1-18~1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Mark /etc/init.d/rc.local as a conffile, to make sure we do not
    replace an exisitng rc.local file without warning the system
    admin. (Closes: #386418)
  * Also create possibly non-existant parent directory of lock directory
    /var/run/network/mountnfs in ifup script.  Patch from Arjan
    Oosting. (Closes: #386449).
  * List 'udev' in the should-start section of mountdevsub.sh, to make
    sure /dev/ is mounted.
  * Change checkroot.sh to use a private tmpfs file system for its
    device file if it is missing from /dev/. (Closes: #386347)
  * Let init.d/stop-bootlogd depend on rmnologin to make sure it
    executes late in the boot.
  * Drop the $all dependency for rc.local, to allow it to start early
    in the boot.
  * Mount /dev/pts/ with noexec,nosuid, as it is only used for device files.
