Public bug reported:

running telinit u causes init to re-exec itself. 
It loses all process state information in the process, so that services can no 
longer be stopped/restarted, and restart or start will either start a daemon 
twice or fail to start it as a consequence.

There needs to be a way that either:
- init, telinit, initctl and possibly other manual pages warn of this loss of 
information;
or 
- this feature gets removed,
or
- init remembers the process IDs across a restart unless told otherwise.
