Can you try to adjust /etc/init.d/rc to run startpar via strace, to
get a more complete view of what is going on?  Is it stopping while
running rcS.d/ or rc[2-5].d/?

I suspect the hang is related to tty handling, as there is not much
more that can go wrong in startpar, but do not really have a good idea
what could cause this.
