Actually it did cover all of them.  If ALLOW_REBOOT=no is set, it removes all 4 of those symlinks.  If it's set back to yes, it restores them.

Looking at the code, that setting also affects /etc/shutdown.allow, /etc/sysctl.conf, /etc/inittab, /etc/X11/gdm/custom.conf, and 
/usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
