This is fixing a symptom, not the real problem.  I've just committed a
SlugOS-specific fix that dodges this problem, so I don't recommend we
apply this.  Specifically, we *do* want to know if we're overwriting a
config file while building the rootfs so that we can use a
PREFERRED_PROVIDER or similar mechanism to select the correct one.

The root cause is the original commit a week or two ago that incorrectly
changed the handling of the device_table file.

The "fix" I committed "backs out" one line of that bad commit in a
SlugOS-specific recipe -- which isn't a fix, but at least it gets SlugOS
building again, is no worse than things were originally, and it affects
no other distros.
