Actually I deviated from the `s6-svscan-log' name, and chose
`s6-svscan.log' due to personal peference; nevertheless, I can confirm
that there is no s6-rc service definition directory named
`s6-svscan.log', `s6rc-fdholder' or `s6rc-oneshot-runner'.

A verbatim copy follows (/bin/rc is a Unix port of Plan 9's rc(1), and
can be installed as the `rc' package from Alpine's testing repository):

There is only the `run' script, no more and no less; the creation of
`fifo' in tmpfs is arranged in the stage1 script (objects, that are not
files, directories or links, in /etc are sometimes really annoying for
the sysadmin :().
