While starting up a node (commit 6fc6325), it was apparently taking curiously long to load the ban list. RPC (in warmup mode) kept returning `Loading banlist...`. When I checked the log I happened upon the following:

```
2016-05-30 07:35:00 init message: Loading banlist...

```

I think it's a matter of the init message not being updated for a new initialization phase after loading the banlist.

if (!CheckDiskSpace(128 * 2 * 2 * pcoinsTip->GetCacheSize()))
            return state.Error("out of disk space");
        
        if (!pcoinsTip->Flush())
            return AbortNode(state, "Failed to write to coin database");
        nLastFlush = nNow;
    }
    if (fDoFullFlush || ((mode == FLUSH_STATE_ALWAYS || mode == FLUSH_STATE_PERIODIC) && nNow > nLastSetChain + (int64_t)DATABASE_WRITE_INTERVAL * 1000000)) {
        
        GetMainSignals().SetBestChain(chainActive.GetLocator());
        nLastSetChain = nNow;
    }
    } catch (const std::runtime_error& e) {
        return AbortNode(state, std::string("System error while flushing: ") + e.what());
    }
    return true;
}

    FlushStateToDisk(state, FLUSH_STATE_NONE);
}
