Most UNIX OS'es use "who -r" to show the current runlevel. The "who" command that ships with Red Hat does not support this option -- the command to determine the current runlevel in Red Hat Linux is "runlevel". "runlevel(8)" is not mentioned in the init/telinit manpage, but "who(1)" is. Either the init/telinit manpage should be changed to reference "runlevel(8)" instead of "who(1)" or support for the "-r" option should be added to "who" command.
Good idea. s/who(1)/runlevel(8)/g
fixed in SysVinit-2.74-12
