Steve I'm sorry but I cannot reproduce this. I have verified this
countless of times during working on this and I am also unable to verify
this here:

Your debootstrap log looks fine, it extracts base-files first. At this point,
/tmp/nobletest should be empty. Unless I suppose you use a old broken version
of debootstrap that used to create the symlinks before extracting the packages?
