See comment #22.

No, some third-party software which incorrectly assumes it's ok to call
insserv directly on installation created a big mess. The /run migration has
simply made the existence of this big mess apparent. In particular, the
failure to cleanly unmount filesystems on shutdown is entirely unrelated to
the /run migration.

No. The nature of the damage done by the third-party packages calling
insserv is such that the system cannot unwind this automatically. We will
be adding some code to do this in a stable release update for 11.10.
