This is a bad, bad, bad idea for any packages that are going to remain
backwards compatible with RHEL, for compilation under EPEL or other
backporting.  Either switch to systemd, or stick with the old location
and allow initscripts to correctly include the old reference. Do not
pick a hallfways "fix" that isn't backwards compatible at all.
