It may depend on your version of unix, but in my port of SysV 3.1.2
"who -r" reports various things about init including the current run
level.  Many of the vendor supplied rc2.d init files use this to make
sure certain things do/don't happen during transition from one state
to another.

I don't know how you would do it from 'c'.
