[Bug 1007] New: init-functions - what does "print a ... message" mean?

Section 20.8. Init Script Functions defines the required functions that will be
available. For the ones which may generate output, "The log_success_msg function
shall cause the system to print a success message." is a typical description.
Does that mean to the system console?  To a logfile?  Can the initscript expect
to be run in an environment where stdout goes to the right place - that is,
would "echo" or "print" be sufficient?  Or is all that an implementation detail?

The underlying question is, can a test be written to this specification that
tests that the init-functions will do what the specification requires?
