I would welcome your suggestion as to a way to perform the function
above (i.e. remove the script from just two runlevels) using
update-rc.d, without entirely removing and reinstating the links. To the
best of my knowledge, there is no way to do this.

Also, the usual consequences of failing to use update-rc.d don't apply
here, so I don't think this bug needs to be release-critical and I'm
downgrading it to normal. The only consequence of this bug is that
upgraded systems using file-rc have a slightly less efficient
shutdown/reboot process.

Cheers,
