Only when the scripts do have the right dependencies. And they not
always do. For example chrony depends only on $local_fs instead of
$remote_fs and could be scheduled in parallel with sendsigs. People do
get the depends wrong and it would be nice to have an extra level of
protection for sendsigs.
The reason why I looked into this is that with ubuntus half conversion
to upstart sendsigs does run in parallel with other scripts and happily
kills them. And I wondered how well Debian is protected from that.
