I'm using systemd only, so on my image there aren't sysvinit scripts
installed and to make sure that everything stays that way I've
blacklisted initscripts recipe in distro configuration.

http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2014-January/088116.html

So including it only when update-rc.d is enabled and the sysvinit script
isn't masked by systemd service or disabled by
openembedded-core/meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd-compat-units.bb
looks like good compromise.

Changing it to RRECOMMENDS isn't really
correct (because it's either mandatory required or not at all), but it
would also make "disabling" it a bit easier.
