Right.  Glad I didn't block your progress. :)

I've commited the fix, but have not had time to test it.  If you have
time to do so, please upload to experimental, and add yourself as an
uploader (no need to NMU).

Also, a new upstream is being worked on, hopefully integrating all
non-Debian-specific patches and fixes from other distrubutions.  It
need more testing before it can be wrapped up and pulled into
Debian. :)

Any objections to dropping Henrique de Moraes Holschuh and Kel
Modderman as uploader (and perhaps also me) and adding Thomas Goirand
and Steve Langasek?  If Thomas upload, it will include the uploaders
for the last two years or so. :)

The alioth project membership could use some updates too.
<URL: https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-sysvinit/ > list Miquel
van Smoorenburg, Henrique de Moraes Holschuh and me as admins. I
suggest to drop Miquel and add Roger as admins.  And perhaps drop
Henrique and add Thomas.  Any objections?
