I was not comparing, I was checking which debian/ folders (aka Debian 
packaging) would contain init scripts, which are then installed in the 
binary packages as /etc/init.d/package (see dh_installinit).

The content of the debian/ directory in an unpacked Debian source 
package is exactly that (which is what sources.debian.net shows), hence 
my references.

I'm ready to place a bet that more changes were made in these scripts by 
the introduction of insserv and mandatory LSB headers than by making 
sure they work fine when run by systemd.
