Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.4-4.9
Severity: critical
/etc/network/run/ in some cases is a symlink to /dev/shm/network/, but
when /dev/shm/ is a symlink to /run/shm/ the directory is created at the
wrong time of the boot process and /etc/init.d/networking fails to bring
up the interfaces.
The init scripts need to be rearranged (and please move
/etc/init.d/networking from netbase to ifupdown in the process!) and
ifupdown should depend on the new initscripts package with /run support
to allow cleaning up some cruft.

Thanks for reporting it. I suspect this was fixed in 0.7~rc1+experimental:
* Take networking init script over from netbase package.
- Merge ifupdown initscript in.
The code is as follows:
RUN_DIR="/run/network"
IFSTATE="$RUN_DIR/ifstate"
[...]
if [ ! -d "$RUN_DIR" ] ; then
if ! mkdir -p "$RUN_DIR" ; then
log_failure_msg "can't create $RUN_DIR"
exit 1
