Annvix uses runit... I'm not aware of any others that do, but Annvix 
uses it completely out of the box.  The only service that is not run 
under runit is autofs, which I still have to figure out.  A few others 
are causing me some grief, but for the most part it is incredibly 
reliable.  (Note that I just switched from using daemontools to runit 
it for the distro about 2-3 weeks ago and the transition was fairly 
smooth although there are still a few things left to do).
