It seems to me that, if a given package ships an initscript which
requires /etc/init.d/functions, it ought to be the responsibility of
that package to rdepend on initscripts itself.  I'm not sure it's
entirely desirable for update-rc.d to drag that dependency in.

Fair enough, but this seems like an unrelated change (and one which
isn't covered by the patch summary or description).  Shouldn't that be
in a separate commit?
