Debain switched to dependency-based boot with Squeeze and those
dependencies are controlled by the LSB headers inside each init script.
On the majority of my systems init scripts are modified to reflect
individual requirements of services during boot (e.g. openvpn before
certain services or similar). Having init scripts installed as conffiles
prevents such setups from breaking after each upgrade.
