Hi Florian, thanks for the patch.

When reading your report I  toed recall the reason why I chose to signal
pid 1 back then, but even after reading history I failed to find out
why.  It might be a good idea to look at similar packages that hook into
sysv's inittab to see what they are doing.  runit may be a candidate.

Regards, Gerrit.
