FWIW reboot is provided by the init system implementation (for instance
on RHEL6 it's from upstart), and /sbin/reboot is only optional in the
FHS. Only /sbin/shutdown is required by the FHS.

On proprietary UNIX versions reboot (not guaranteed to be in /sbin, it
was /etc/reboot on Ultrix 4, /usr/sbin/reboot on Solaris) may not run
shutdown scripts either (eg Solaris), you'd want to use shutdown for that.

cheers,
Chris
