Hmm, unfortunately this means that anyone who has fiddled any of the startup
symlinks for *other* runlevels is going to lose configuration state. :/ I
think in this case, it's perhaps best to not worry about upgrades;
presumably, anyone who was running watchdog in woody for the past years
isn't bothered by this bug. What do you think?
