Bug#405870: sysvinit: halt binary missing ifdown, breaks wake on lan, src...

[HarryCoin]

P.S.
 
Be sure to do the test in the context of the /etc/init.d/halt script.   I 
don't know whether it does the same thing in the context of a running system  
or 
not.
 
Just edit /etc/init.d/halt
 
and just before the 
 
halt -f
 
put
 
....
ifconfig
halt -i -w
ifconfig
sleep 20
....
 
the distro halt will not show any change between the two ifconfig  runs.   
The halt compiled by hand 'make halt' in the src in the  sysvint sources will 
properly down the interfaces.
