So, a hotplug event could load and run code (which happen to be in conf files, and therefore cannot be diverted) in the old hotplug package. The problem you're facing, it seems, is that while code should be divertable, conf files aren't, but hotplug doesn't separate these out, so the usual mechanisms don't work. Am I on the right track? Of course, init files are code and conf files, but they have a built-in mechanism for preventing them from running, which is to look for the binary the init file runs, and if it isn't there, don't do anything. It seems you don't have any such protection built into the hotplug conffiles-that-are-also-executables, or else you wouldn't be in this mess.
