telinit in current snapshot

I am attempting to cross-compile an SH4 version of the current snapshot for a 
satellite set top box.  All other tools work fine, but attempts to restart init 
from a telnet session (ie   init 4: sleep 8: enigma2 ) fail with a 'init must 
be PID1' message.

I do have a 'ln -sf /bin/busybox /bin/telinit' link, but issuing a telinit 
command returns 'applet not found'

The command works fine on version 18.5 on my mipsel boxes so presumably I've 
got a wrong setting in make menuconfig.

Please advise.
