	Restart does what "Shutdown" used to do.  Sync's everything
up and goes through the reboot procedure.  It doesn't, however,
redo the diagnostics so it happens much quicker.

	Shutdown issues a new System Error number to [possibly
sync the disks, this may get done before the error is issued]
display a dialog that says you can safely turn things off.  Avoids
the question that we heard so often not so long ago "when can I
turn my disk off?"  (Not to mention endless arguments about
same.)  Unfortunately the older ROM's don't understand the
error message and give you the standard default bomb.
