I also have this problem with busybox 1.2.1
I use the following snippet of code from busybox 1.0 to reboot the board.

int restart_system( void )
{

#ifndef RB_AUTOBOOT
#define RB_AUTOBOOT             0x01234567
#endif

        /* Don't kill ourself */
        signal(SIGTERM,SIG_IGN);
        signal(SIGHUP,SIG_IGN);
        setpgrp();

        /* Allow Ctrl-Alt-Del to reboot system. */
#ifndef RB_ENABLE_CAD
#define RB_ENABLE_CAD   0x89abcdef
#endif
        reboot(RB_ENABLE_CAD);

        sync();

        kill(-1, SIGTERM);
        sleep(1);
        sync();

        kill(-1, SIGKILL);
        sleep(1);

        sync();

        reboot(RB_AUTOBOOT);
        return 0; /* Shrug */
}
