Sorry for the delay in spotting this one sooner (and I'm surprised apparently
nobody else has).  Was busy, didn't get a chance to bisect it at all till
today, and I only got as far as "one of the above patches".

System works fine, except when you go to shutdown.  When it hits the /sbin/killall5
call in /etc/init.d/halt, it kills *all* the processes, and we get a
nice message 'INIT: no more processes in current runlevel', and we're dead in
the water.  Checking with alt-sysrg-T shows that in fact, the only things
left running are the various kernel threads.  As near as I can tell, killall5
wasn't able to tell that its parent process was part of its process group,
so didn't refrain from killing it.

Any ideas/clues?
