Your list of affected packages obtained with "git grep" in the Portage
tree will not be complete, since the command won't catch any init
scripts installed from elsewhere. You should look for the set of
installed files instead.

Also, what problem are you trying to solve? My guess would be that
/sbin/runscript must be kept around indefinitely in any case, in order
not to risk breakage on users' systems.
