Aha! Thanks for the clue.
The problem appears to have gone away after removing rdnssd, so I assume
it was a particularly severe case of #740998 (an RC bug which was sadly
not fixed in jessie).
I'll follow up on that bug (and probably a new bug against
debian-installer to have rdnssd not installed).
Thanks,
Dominic.
