Hi gang,

It has been one month since the last sysvinit release; I think it's
time for a new one.  HMH: Can you do it?

Since -12 there have been several changes, as described below.  All of
them are relatively minor.

I make a special request for proofreading of the NEWS.Debian item that
I added.  I don't have too much experience writing such items.

sysvinit (2.86.ds1-13~8) unstable; urgency=low
