Light dawns.
chroot-setup.sh does indeed move aside /sbin/initctl. However, it
doesn't divert it! Therefore, if upstart is upgraded, it will put a
real initctl back. In this case, upstart is upgraded before procps,
hence the bug.
Alarmingly, this means that in such cases the resulting system will end
up with an upgraded version of upstart according to dpkg but will in
fact have an old initctl binary, because d-i will have saved initctl
from the start of its internal upgrade process and then put it back at
the end. Therefore, we need to fix this bug rather urgently for all
supported releases.
