So, I took a look at the sysvinit source and the true problem appears to be that loop checking the the dependency makefile parser is hideously inefficient. It has a built in check for when loop-checking is doing too much work then bails out. This is what's getting triggered.
This is clearly a known problem since there's already a Debian patch in the package that increases the number of checks that the loop-checker is allowed to do by 100x.
