Heh. Well, it's a matter of what level of hack you're comfortable with.

In the current system, the options are:

- X-blahblah flag that /etc/rc checks for (woo, grep!), and then decides
  not to stop
- X-blahblah flag that chkconfig reads, and therefore doesn't write
  /etc/rc{0,6}.d/ links (won't help upgrades)

Obviously, if you move to a different init system, all this changes.
