Look at

	/usr/src/distrib/special/init/Makefile
	/usr/src/sbin/init/init.c
and pay attention to
	DEFAULT_STATE

The binaries in the distribution media are not the same as the normal production system. They've been crunched together, and the "special" ones are compiled with slightly different options. init is one of those special cases.

I don't know if you're trying to "augment" the ramdisk build, or if you've forked things and don't care if it can still build a generic disk. If the former, you may want to figure out how to build "special" special programs; if the latter, you can just hack the makefile in the obvious way.
