The previous test assumed that we could always rely on the minor fault
counter to change between reads of /proc/self/stat, but we found that
this is not the case.
The new test compares two reads of /proc/self/environ for which we have
set the same environment variable to two different values.
If the comparison shows the two reads have the same contents, we know
that /proc is not working.
I would like to thank Robin Johnson and Mike Frysinger for their input
for this patch.

Previously we checked if /proc was alive by reading /proc/uptime twice
with a 1 second sleep between calls, so that it had time to update.
This got a complaint of an entire 1 second delay, so we improve the
check to be much faster without sleep. We cannot continue to use
/proc/uptime as it only has a 10ms resolution.

* status on a stopped service now has a return code of 3 (was 1)
* starting an already started service now has a return code of 0 (was 1)
* stopping an already stopped service now has a return code of 0 (was 1)
runscript.sh needs to abort if the . command used to load
conf.d files and the service script does not execute successfully.
I would like to thank Mike Frysinger for his input wrt style on this
patch.
OpenRC version is now stored as plaintext in /libexec/rc/version
Plugins (cursplash, splashutils) will have to be re-compiled to pickup
the new directories. State data needs to be moved from /lib/rc/init.d
to /libexec/rc/init.d as well.
Split halt.sh into halt, killprocs, romount and savecache services.
The reboot runlevel is removed but mapped to shutdown.
The halt script should be moved to the sysvinit package.
mounting various bits in /dev and /sys.
init.sh JUST mounts /lib/rc/init.d (and /proc for Linux systems)
To make development of this easier we now return an empty RC_STRINGLIST
instead of a NULL for empty things.
If you don't have a udev init script installed, don't reboot your box OR
roll back to an older OpenRC version.
