The invoke-rc.d shoul work with sysv-style init systems as well as with
file-rc style. It basically is a wrapper that should make start/stops of
daemons independent from the actual init implementation and allow system
specific policies, just as the one you request.

I'm not sure if they would be recreated. Even if so, there is AFAIK the
possibility of creating an /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d but maybe this program was
just written about in the README but does not yet exists... I tag the bug 
wishlist
and think later about how to fix it the best :)
