There's a couple of bugs there, one is simply that the error is "unhandled" - could you open an Upstream bug about that alone ("shutdown: doesn't handle error from sysv_change_runlevel")

I'm not sure why it did not receive a reply, it should contact the init daemon directly.

Obvious question - is shutdown being run as a normal user or as root?
