AFAIK, runlevels are coming with initscripts package, not sysvinit - you can
overwrite that with IMAGE_INITSCRIPTS variable. But then you'd have to manage
startup scripts yourself, as many recipes hook into update-rc.d through
INITSCRIPT_PARAMS.

Theodore A. Roth is kind enough to help with the documentation. Earlier today
he sent the patch to the bitbake mailing list with the following text:
Setting a default value (?=)
A ?= "aval"
If A is set before the above is called, it will retain it's
previous value. If A is unset prior to the above call, A will be
set to aval.
