A new patch, and only a small change,
While installing sysvinit-2.86 in SVN-20050702 I found using the
more_control_and_pkg_man.txt that a symbolic link was overwritten.
This is probably not a critical patch and can probably also be
acomplished using a simple sed command.

Description: The link /bin/pidof -> /bin/killall (from psmisc-21.6) is
overwritten to point to /sbin/killall5 during the install of sysvinit-2.86.
This patch instead creates the symbolic link /sbin/pidof -> /sbin/killall5
and leaves the bin version in place.
