BTW, all of your upstream changes are already in sysvinit.git
(http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/sysvinit;a=blob_plain;f=debian/patches/93_run_initctl.patch;hb=a0263c14e64f0bbab10f656284272a8c9066189b)
I would propose something like the following, based on your
patch, would complete the migration (attached). Not yet tested.

Roger
