At the very least leave an inittab file that contains a note that it
is not used anymore. Much better than having to find out the new

Dear god yes.. and we will probably still have every sysadmin, book,
and out-of-fedora package that places stuff in /etc/inittab for serial
ports, etc yell every 2 seconds on fedora-list(a)redhat.com, etc that
Fedora-9 borked their setup.
