killall5 is a kludge.  Normally transitions between runlevels are 
supposed to start jobs marked for the new runlevel that are not already 
running, and end jobs not marked for the new runlevel that are running. 
  Because that allows some processes to escape, the transition to 
runlevel s was made to slay ALL processes, then start over from scratch.
