What removes it? I suspect it's not dpkg... (or we would have noticed it
already)

There is no command in the sample you provided and you used twice the
same package ?

Please give the output of:
dpkg -I /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.9-24_amd64.deb

Do you have weird commands in apt-get/dpkg hooks?

Try running those 2 commands a few times in loop to see if you can
really witness this problem with only dpkg:
# ls -al /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.*
# dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.9-24_amd64.deb
