Actually, sysv-rc is behaving as intended, designed and documented. When switching from one runlevel to another, only new start scripts are executed. So, if portmap want to stop in runlevel 0 and 6 while starting in runlevels 2-5, it should install a K* symlink, not S* symlinks. On the other hand, the runlevels 0 and 6 are very special, as S* symlinks are handled as if they wyere K* symlinks. This is an argument for handling the optimizing specially as well.
I believe the proper fix for this is to convert all S* style symlinks in rc0.d/ and rc6.d/ to K* style symlinks, but it will require a lot of painful coordination using the current framework. Switching to dependency based boot sequencing using insserv will solve this problem automatically. Anyway, I'll see what can be done in init.d/rc to work around this issue.
