Strange. Here is my variant:
(if (emacs-type-eq 'fsf)
(if (emacs-version= 23 )
(progn
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/")
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/")
(defconst debian-emacs-flavor 'emacs22)
(load "debian-startup")
(debian-startup 'emacs-snapshot))))
This seems to work fine, with just a single invocation.
