 - Add `initctl -f` to force-skip asking Finit for existing services
   when creating new services during bootstrap, e.g. `/etc/rc.local`

+- `initctl runlevel N` during bootstrap is now allowed.  It changes
+  the next runlevel to go to when bootstrap has completed.  Effectively
+  overriding the `runlevel N` statement in `/etc/finit.conf`
 - Improved logging on failure to `execvp()` a run/task/service, now
