Thanks for this bug report.  I am going to fix it in the next upload,
but I could use a little help.  I've merged your changes to the init
script except that ...

... this is not necessary; the server does not use syslog for its logging.

I don't know how to do this; can you point me at instructions?
Currently, all rc*.d related code is being generated by
dh_installinit.  I don't see clear instructions in any of the obvious
places to look (policy manual, developer's reference, man
dh_installinit, man update-rc.d) and I don't want to get it wrong.
