Ah yes, should've been apparent to me. Those were left over from when
I installed Debian Sid on this machine a while back using grml2hd from
the grml live cd. Gathered those script names into a file like:

    % cat /tmp/grml-scripts
    grml-home
    bootlocal.first
    bootlocal.middle
    bootlocal.last
    bootsplash_start.sh
    bootsplash_end.sh 
    grml-misc 
    firewall
    samsung_x20
    haltlocal.first
    haltlocal.middle
    haltlocal.last
    grml-reboot

and got rid of them:

    # cd /etc/init.d
    # rm `cat /tmp/grml-scripts`

Now the dist-upgrade goes through without complaint.

Thanks for the tip!
