I do not really like this approach.  Incorrect usage of init.d scripts
should give an error or warning, not be silently ignored.  What about
rewriting the sourceing of mountvirtfs into a normal program
execution?  I mean replace '. /etc/init.d/mountvirtfs' with
'/etc/init.d/mountvirtfs start'.  Yes, it might affect execution
speed, but at least it is predictable.
