I would expect it to re-run *everything* not marked .done in /etc/postinstall, and the autorebase script is never so marked.

The autorebase mechanism has a “fast” mode, which should be running, as opposed to the “full” mode, which is slower.  Verify that by the existence of /var/cache/rebase/fullrebase.done.

(Yeah, that’s right, watch me flex my new autorebase muscles.  Beware the Dunning-Kruger effect!)
