Shouldn't sendsigs (initscripts) be executed in runlevel 0 and 6

Asked by Metabaronen

The sendsigs sysv script is installed as a start script in runlevel 0 and 6 by default.

ls -l /etc/rc?.d/*sendsigs
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2012-02-27 12:31 /etc/rc0.d/S20sendsigs -> ../init.d/sendsigs
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2012-02-27 12:31 /etc/rc6.d/S20sendsigs -> ../init.d/sendsigs

When I'm reading the script it doesn't handle the "start" option at all.
-----
case "$1" in
  start)
 # No-op
 ;;
-----

It just looks wrong. Are there a reason for this?
