Just an observation here.... Do you actually _know_ that the
init-scripts are being run?
Stopping the vserver should first run those to stop the services
(apache, databases, etc....)
in a nice way, and thereafter stop the whole vserver. Is it possible for
you to check?
If it actually works, one could easily edit the vserver script to change the
way 'stop' works, at least until a bugfix is available officially... :-)
