After reading the elogind README once again, I think the following
quote actually answers my question:

+
| For shutdown, reboot, and kexec, elogind shells out to "halt",
| "reboot",and "kexec" binaries.
+

AIUI, elogind calls "halt", which in turn would call "shutdown",
which executes the equivalent of "init 0". Thus, assuming PID1 is
SysV-init, the traditional behavior would be preserved, correct?
