Why does this matter? The init scripts in RHEL/Fedora aren't meant to be
run on any LSB compliant distro, they are meant to be run on RHEL/Fedora.
All we should care is that you can install a LSB compliant application
on our distro and that it's LSB compliant init script will work as
required by LSB.

The fewer commands the script runs the shorter is the startup time,
something we really care about.
