[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Question for Miquel

[Thomas Hood]

I've been meaning to ask Miquel about the change shown below.  It worries me that
he left two \0 characters at the end of argv0 instead of just one.  I didn't see
any reason for doing so and a user asked for the change so I made it; but perhaps
Miquel knows something I don't.  Miquel, any comment?
