I have confirmed that downgrading to initscripts_2.85-4.1_all.deb 
sysv-rc_2.85-4.1_all.deb and sysvinit_2.85-4.1_i386.deb will resolve the
lack of terminal output.

I am submitting a bug report for the initscripts package, soon to appear
here: <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=initscripts>
