This doesn't mean that s-s-d has a problem however.

And? You know that the etch version is _released_ and as such can't be fixed unless it's a major problem (which this is not). And as I said, you should check if the sid version is any better for your problem. > But the real problem is that despite the daemon is not running, the > package can not be removed.

Not until you define more precisely what problem do you have with start-stop-daemon and what would be the right behaviour in your opinion. In many cases, it's the caller of s-s-d that is at fault and not s-s-d itself.
