I tried this with both 'init 6' and 'telinit 6', which should be
equivalent.  And for both, it take the machine down and reboots.

One idea I got is that this might be related to the issues with the
process session groups that was fixed in version 2.86.ds1-37.

Is the problem still there?

Happy hacking,
