This might be related to checking for crashed tables (ie poor interaction between debian-start and mysqld_safe). I noticed that mysql would not accept connections until the crashed tables operation was completed. mysqld_safe and /etc/init.d/mysql use mysqladmin to connect to the database, so there may be poor interaction here.
