To fix the mess made by insserv, this is what I did:

 * figure out which package each init script belonged to
 * figure out which of those packages were installed, and which were residual
* purge the packages that were residual
* delete all the symlinks under /etc/rc*.d/
* reinstall the packages that were installed

That recreated all of the symlinks properly.

In my case, I think it was VMWare Player's installer that ran insserv,
or at the very least broke all the simlinks. There is a post over on
their forum describing a similar problem to this one.
