I know this must seem an incredibly minor point, but I'd like to write the
uptime to /var/log/messages before the system shuts down whenever I do
"shutdown" or "reboot" or the like.

What would be the best way to go about that?  I know I could hack it into
rc.shutdown or something, but is there a gentler way?
