Interesting. With

$ echo /etc/rc*/*avahi-daemon
/etc/rc0.d/K02avahi-daemon /etc/rc1.d/K02avahi-daemon
/etc/rc2.d/K02avahi-daemon /etc/rc3.d/K02avahi-daemon
/etc/rc4.d/K02avahi-daemon /etc/rc5.d/K02avahi-daemon
/etc/rc6.d/K02avahi-daemon

running

$ invoke-rc.d avahi-daemon start

indeed does not start avahi-daemon. It seems invoke-rc.d does this check
for start or restart actions.
