I'm considering C: ipmi-init somewhere, but I'm not sure where to put

you could as well fix the script to always replace /dev/ipmi0 if /dev is
static
There is no point in keeping every legacy stuff just because we had it
in PLD at some time. Some pieces of software were just mistakes, that is
it. Maintaining broken stuff 'for compatibility' is pointless, it still
requires work bringing, but only brings problems.
If some system relies on old, broken behavior, then the system needs an
update. Much bigger distibutions won't support indefinite backward
compatibility. We cannot afford that even more.
It is the same case for 'Require: mingetty' in rc-scripts.
