Ok.

An yet undecided question is the renaming run-init -> switch_root.
I agree with the assessment that underscore utilities are not pretty,
but this thing will be rarely called by the user himself.
It seems people have settled for the more descriptive switch root.

The other open question is the move mounting of /dev, /proc, /sys to
/newroot (with an Google bug in their rc scripts not handling this case).
switch_root in util-linux does it.
