Yup, hence my final comment. However, I suspect that the multitude-of-init-systems is going to be a somewhat temporary condition for a few years, and after that with the amount of vertical integration everybody is pushing one may win out. If that happens, we'll all be using whatever that ends up being, regardless of whether it is a good match for Prefix. If the world remains heterogeneous then most likely Gentoo will remain as such also, and other than all the package maintainers having to supply 3 different init scripts for their pacakges all will be well for Prefix.
