Public bug reported:

Installing systemd-sysv replaces upstart's "reboot", "poweroff" and
friends. systemd's binaries currently don't know how to talk to upstart
to "forward" the request to upstart. This breaks a transition to systemd
as default init which doesn't just change the boot= kernel parameter but
installs systemd-sysv.

The same problem happens when systemd-sysv is installed but the system
gets booted with init=/sbin/upstart.

It would be useful if one could do "initctl reboot", so that there's
always a way to reboot the system when using a different init= than
/sbin/init.
