when halting, umountfs calls init-functions/log_end_msg() AFTER umount -a

[Marc Herbert]

...and then log_end_msg() calls $TPUT, which is defined as /usr/bin/tput at this
point
(don't know how, but I am sure since I _traced_ it with set -x).
And /usr/bin/tput may obviously be missing since umount -a has been called.
Conclusion is this ugly message:

+ /usr/bin/tput hpa 73
/lib/lsb/init-functions: line 239: /usr/bin/tput: No such file or directory
+ '[' 1 -eq 0 ']'
+ printf '['
+ /usr/bin/tput setaf 1
/lib/lsb/init-functions: line 244: /usr/bin/tput: No such file or directory
+ printf fail
+ /usr/bin/tput op
/lib/lsb/init-functions: line 246: /usr/bin/tput: No such file or directory
+ echo ']'
+ return 1

To debug avoiding the reboot, call /etc/init.d/umountfs in single user mode.

By the way "telinit 1" does not call "umount -a", surprising.

Same problem as the (very old, so probably no more relevant) bug #7803.
