While reviewing sysvinit patches from ubuntu, I came across this
recent change.

sysvinit (2.86.ds1-1.1ubuntu6) breezy; urgency=low

  * Make -H work correctly and end up with system halted rather than
    dumping the user into single user mode.

This is the patch:

I'm not sure if this change is correct.  Should 'shutdown -H' halt the
system?  The documentation might be interpreted to say so:

  -H  Halt action is to halt or drop into boot monitor on systems that
      support it.
