Read the source ;-)  Look inside baselayout 1.8.6.8-r1 ebuild

        # SysvInit version
        SVIV="2.84"

        S2="${WORKDIR}/sysvinit-${SVIV}/src"

        src_unpack() {

               unpack sysvinit-${SVIV}.tar.gz


There must be a reason I'm overlooking. There used to be a separate ebuild for 
sysvinit, but now it's included inside baselayout, why? Why? Why? (That's it, 
if you don't mind me ask :-)
