Yes, I do plan to ask for a freeze exception for sysvinit.  -28
had some additional RC bugs in it, which was why -29 added which
fixed a number of RC bugs and wheezy upgrade/install issues.
A bug was reported a few days ago about a corner case where
upgrades fail inside a chroot, which I was able to reproduce
last night, and which I should hopefully be able to fix this
week.  And there was another upgrade/regression issue (I'll have
to double-check the bug #) which needs checking and fixing as
well.

Roger
