I'm unable to reproduce this problem.  I just tested on
debian/unstable in my qemu test installation, using

  debootstrap sid /tmp/new http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian

It completed successfully.  This was with the debian kernel
2.6.17-1-686 and sysvinit 2.86.ds1-15.  Could your problem be related
to your self-made kernel?  As far as I know, the sysvinit package have
not changed its handling of /dev/initctl for a very long time.

Friendly,
