I can confirm this.  This morning I was feeling brave after a rough
weekend, so I decided to upgrade to the latest MailScanner version on
our production box during peak hour traffic.  I thought it would go
through fine without problems, to my suprise there were all these init
script errors as indicated above.  I simply replaced the init script
with my old init script and all was back to normal.

It would seem the new init script breaks RH style init scripts.
