My current sysvinit (2.83-1) has this in the changelog.Debian:
* Turn off write-caching on all IDE disks prior to unmounting
filesystems. On some systems that poweroff on halt the system
powers off before the IDE disk write cache is flushed. You do
need to have hdparm installed to get this to work.
I suppose this is the problem. Try installing the sysvinit and hdparm
from woody (or maybe sid) to see if that fixes the problem.
