+1 Not doing so is leading to confusing/broken behavior during upgrades. By deferring the application of the sysctl settings until reboot, we're effectively leaving the system in a half-upgraded state where applications that depend on sysctls set here will misbehave for confusing reasons until a reboot happens. See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1085289 and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1084135 for instances of issues caused during upgrades. noah
