if you have something like this

/etc/init.d/foo -> /data/src/bar/foo.init

with foo:

start()
{
	echo "hello world"
}


local will timeout because of foo.

The issue is that symbolic links in a service directory (such as
/etc/init.d) must point to scripts in the same directory.
We already have a bug for this.
