I notice that most of the packages in Trunk have their /etc/init.d scripts set

handling services in moblin?

there is two answers to that:

* If it's generically useful (eg always start) we'll start it from rc.sysinit, 
no big deal
  (the question is "why gpsd but not gypsy like the rest of moblin", but that's 
an independent question)
* If it's very specific, there's nothing wrong with an /etc/init.d script. One 
of them isn't THAT much slower.
  It gets slow if you do a ton of them, or if the one you do takes a long time.
  (just starting a daemon tends to not be too bad)
