In a way it is a bug in uswsusp, because it doesn't depend on
initscripts. But changing uswsusp to do this will not help you...

If I were you I would try to install initscripts, The way you have your
system now is asking for problems. It maybe working now but you won't
get any new updates to the booting part of your system (unless you take
updates from knoppix of course). 
BTW, if your are using the encrypted loopback capabilities of mount-aes,
you will need the debian loop-aes-utils package, I guess.
I'm not sure how much your system diverges from a debian system so I
can't really comment on the risks. I would guess there are more users
that upgraded their knoppix to a debian system so you could google a bit
for it.


In the mean time you can edit you can edit /etc/uswsusp.conf by hand.
Or remove the 'mountpoint' tests from the scripts:

/var/lib/dpkg/info/uswsusp.postinst
/var/lib/dpkg/info/uswsusp.config

and dpkg-reconfigure uswsusp.
