Correct. It was just a paranoid thing to prevent any chance of a filesystem
being supermounted during shutdown...

I didn't actually see the problems myself (Benjamin: can you elaborate for
Chmouel?); I added this for Benjamin to eliminate his need to edit the halt
script to remove "-p"... /halt gets removed at startup; this was a very
specific workaround to give him a permanent /halt file. Not elegant, or even
desirable except for this one case. I might have a better idea what the problem
was if there was a way to do a screen capture on a virtual console at the moment
just before poweroff... :^)
