well, insserv works, it knows about boot.d. It's the legacy /etc/init.d/rc
file that doesn't know about it. But that shouldn't be a problem, because
'rc' is used to switch betweeen runlevels, but the boot.d/ scripts are not
part of any specific runlevel (and you shouldn't be able to switch to a
runlevel B).
What is that functionality you need there?

I thought about this at the gym, I think I can easily code that
in /sbin/pre_init, when I can manually change inittab (replacing the default
runlevel with sed and grep) before starting init. That's under the
assumption, that once init runs, there is no point to doing that (otherwise,
that could be done in a boot.d/ script before entering the runlevel)
