Description of problem:

Annoying startup and rc1, rcS, rcS-sulogin message glitches, man page typos.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
event-compat-sysv-0.3.9-13.fc9.noarch
initscripts-8.70-1.i386
NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.9.2.svn3566.fc9.i386
upstart-0.3.9-17.fc9.i386

How reproducible: very

Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot to single user mode & exit see rcS killed message
2. boot normally see some [OK] on the second line, and rcS killed message
3. telinit 1 and see rc1 and rcS-sulogin killed messages
4. read events(5) and initctl(8) man pages see typos.

Actual results:
user gets annoyed and anxious

Expected results:
startup messages shouldn't look like errors

Patch which fixes those annoyances.

The change to /etc/rc.d/init.d/single makes it completely dispensable.
All it does is clear the screen.  /etc/event.d/rc1 now does the telinit S.
But you wouldn't want this version of init.d/single installed without the
matching event.d/rc1.

Just the NetworkManager patch.

Sorry, should have made this bug completely separate, since
the fix is really unrelated to the others.

The patch is trivial, original is attached and pasted in here:

I've committed that patch to upstream NM already, will get into next NM snapshot
for rawhide and F9.
