/etc/rc0.d/S90halt either halts or poweroffs the system depending on the setting in /etc/default/halt. The setting can be overridden with the env variable INIT_HALT.

That's what /etc/event.d/rc0-halt does: it contains "env INIT_HALT=HALT". I commented the line out, and "halt" worked just like it used to.
