Now I've sneaked in /lib/lsb/init-functions and it's
apparent from the design that it's going to increase
the overhead sensibly (it sources the old functions
file multiple times).

This transition would be a good time to rewrite the
old init functions in C or speed them up in their
present shell form by dropping some old functionality.

If there are no resources to do it, I hereby volunteer
to do this work in due time, provided there's interest
from the current redhat-lsb maintainers to merge my
changes back.
