* http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.0.1/LSB-Core/LSB-Core/iniscrptact.html

  RH/FC initscripts do not have:
  * try-restart, force-reload actions
  * do not return the LSB error-codes


* http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.0.1/LSB-Core/LSB-Core/initscrcomconv.html

  These comments are neither in RH/FC initscripts, nor supported by the
  initsystem.


* http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.0.1/LSB-Core/LSB-Core/iniscrptfunc.html

  These functions are not used by the RH/FC initscript; instead of
  'daemon' or 'killproc' are there.


I do not say that these are errors; just that the RH/FC initscripts are
not LSB compliant.
