     Well, sometimes fashion coincides with improvement. But this is 
just a generality; I've no opinion about how init is coded and I don't 
think Dennys expressed any.

     Actually pid1 only needs to start one process, the real init, and 
wait the zombies. The real init then takes care of mounts and starts the 
services or starts a supervisor to do it. This would seriously shrink pid1.
