+ <li> The old compiled service database is left unchanged, and the new compiled

+<a href="s6-rc-init.html">s6-rc-init</a> invocation will still boot on the
+old compiled unless more work is performed. It is recommended to keep a

+<a href="s6-rc-init.html">s6-rc-init</a> on <tt>current</tt>, and to
+make <tt>current</tt> point to the new compiled right after a s6-rc-update
