The *very* hackish way around the problem is to modify (after copying originals) /var/lib/dpkg/info/nscd.prerm and /etc/init.d/nscd to force exit status of 0 on stop. I don't know if both of these are necessary. I then removed the package, finished the upgrade, and reinstalled afterward restarting.
