When copying an existing /etc/init.d/ script, updating with INIT header and then run /etc/init.d/<script> status system aborts.

# cp /etc/init.d/sockd /etc/init.d/sockd-1.5.0
# insserv /etc/init.d/sockd-1.5.0

Update INIT INFO from 

 ### BEGIN INIT INFO
 # Provides:       sockd

to

 ### BEGIN INIT INFO
 # Provides:       sockd-1.5.0

Then run 

# systemctl status sockd-1.5.0
Failed to issue method call: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes 
include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus 
security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network 
connection was broken.
# systemctl status sockd-1.5.0
Failed to get D-Bus connection: Failed to connect to socket

I am running Opensuse 12.3

# rpm -q -f /sbin/init
systemd-sysvinit-195-13.45.1.x86_64

# systemd --version
systemd 195
suse
+PAM +LIBWRAP +AUDIT +SELINUX +IMA +SYSVINIT +LIBCRYPTSETUP +GCRYPT +ACL +XZ

This is 100% reproducible. And only a hard reboot fixes it :-(
