Actually, it is better to provide the output from
/usr/share/insserv/make-testsuite, which allow the boot sequence to be
reproduced using dummy init.d scripts.

To debug this, try to disable concurrent booting (and keep dependency
based boot sequencing), and see if it work better.  Also, it would be
useful to get the boot log (/var/log/boot.log) after enabling
bootlogd.

What exactly is needed to reproduce the problem?
