In comment #50 I ask if the "filesystem" and "net-device-up IFACE=lo" events 
are not issued or
issued when /sbin/init doesn't yet know about /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf .

I now see, in a "runlevel unknown" boot  _AND_  a "runlevel N 2" boot that each
/var/log/boot.log records that both events happen _and_ the rc-sysinit state 
goes from "waiting" to "starting".

Both boot files are the same length:  730 lines.

>From examining the boot.log files I think that, although the order is 
>different, all the same activities are accomplished
before the  filesystem  event is asserted.  The end of the boot.log file, in 
either case, reads:

<tty>
init: rpc_pipefs goal changed from stop to start
init: rpc_pipefs state changed from waiting to starting
init: Handling starting event
init: rpc_pipefs state changed from starting to pre-start
init: rpc_pipefs pre-start process (835)
init: Handling filesystem event                                                 
  <<<
init: rsyslog goal changed from stop to start
init: rsyslog state changed from waiting to starting
init: plymouth-log goal changed from stop to start
init: plymouth-log state changed from waiting to starting
init: ssh goal changed from stop to start
init: ssh state changed from waiting to starting
init: rc-sysinit goal changed from stop to start
init: rc-sysinit state changed from waiting to starting                 <<<
init: Handling starting event
init: rsyslog state changed from starting to pre-start
init: rsyslog state changed from pre-start to spawned
</tty>

Next stop, pulling apart the syslogs.
