It's important for the daemontools-run package that the added SV inittab entry comes into effect after the package installation is completed. That's why it does 'kill -s HUP 1' to signal sysvinit to re-read /etc/inittab, and so starts up /usr/bin/svscanboot. Does it help if you configure the vserver with '--initstyle plain'?
