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.
