Package: sysvinit Version: 2.57b-1 Until all of the bugs related to /etc/init.d scripts calling /etc/init.d/functions are fixed, /etc/init.d/functions shouldn't do anything (i.e., it should be an empty script). This will end the problem with the arguments getting changed.
In addition, /etc/init.d/skeleton should remove the line that sources /etc/init.d/functions so that future packages that use this file as a starting point for /etc/init.d scripts don't source it.
