OK. I misunderstood the specification. When I read about this tool I did
not remember the specification of the comment header in the scripts. I did
not think of the possibility that the runlevel comments would be used by
an installation program.
Maybe we should add a note at the description of the "install_initd"
program which makes clear that the comment header in the script is used to
determine where links have to be installed.
