Well, I once hacked up the shutdown command from the NetBSD
distribution to run with MiNT OS (involved some hacking of MiNT OS's
init, too). As it expects programs /usr/etc/halt and /usr/etc/reboot
to perform actual halt or reboot it should work with the new system
calls as well (I haven't yet adapted my halt and reboot programs to
use the new system calls, too much other work going on :-(

I shall send you the diffs tomorrow.
