Oops.  I guess I should have pasted a package description for the sake
of those who aren't using woody:

,----
| [sixpack:~]# apt-cache show file-rc
| Package: file-rc
| Priority: extra
| Section: admin
| Installed-Size: 55
| Maintainer: Roland Rosenfeld <roland@debian.org>
| Architecture: all
| Version: 0.5.7
| Depends: sysvinit
| Conflicts: ash (<< 0.3.5-1)
| Filename: dists/woody/main/binary-all/admin/file-rc_0.5.7.deb
| Size: 17676
| MD5sum: f33837f77d63b10d78cf58b480a84784
| Description: Alternative one-configfile boot mechanism
|  This package provides an alternative mechanism to boot the system, to
|  shut it down and to change runlevels.  The /etc/rc?.d/* links will be
|  converted into one single configuration file /etc/runlevel.conf
|  instead, which is easier to administrate than symlinks, and is also
|  more flexible.
|  .
|  The package will automatically convert your existing symlinks into
|  the file method on installation, and convert the file back into
|  symlinks on removal.  Both mechanisms are compatible trough
|  /etc/init.d/rc, /etc/init.d/rcS and /usr/sbin/update-rc.d scripts.
