Hmm, how would you use this? Send SysV stdout to /dev/null, but SysV
stderr to the console? Is this really advisable? i.e. are you sure that
if current init scripts encounter an error they properly write warnings
to stderr, instead of just echoing them to stdout?

if we merge this, is SysVConsole still useful then? Shouldn't we kill
that then?
