Well, I tried the current version in gremlins (1.0.4.1-3), as opposed to the current version in system (1.0.4.1-2), and that fixed the reboot and the poweroff issues, :).  Unfortunately it broke S6 starting services and oneshots.  On boot, only one tty gets enabled, it's not tty1, console-setup never gets started since I use a terminus font that never gets loaded as an example, and dhcpcd neither.  Actually look at the error message when trying to start dhcpcd:

% sudo s6-rc -u change dhcpcd
s6-rc: fatal: unable to take locks: No such file or directory

As another example fuse doesn't work either.

So yes, s6-linux-init in gremlins does fix reboot/poweroff, but can't be used, since it sort of breaks S6...  But I'm glad it seems it'll get fixed, :).

Thanks !
