I thought about it a bit, and i'm not sure it's an information every
bug report should have. I suspect there are few packages which are
directly impacted by the possible different init system Debian has,
and it's probably more useful if such packages write a bugscript to
retrieve the init which is running on the machine and attach it to the
report.

what do you think?
