I'm using udev027 and sometimes I notice that the permissions change on my
/dev entries. Here is the scenario

I run distcc on an internal lan. I was compiling the kernel on one of the
machines, when the main machines /dev/null changed it's permissions. I have
the udev set to log, but never see any for the creation of /dev/null. I
rebooted the machine in question and double checked my config files, and
everything looks to be in proper order. I also noticed that some of my tty
and psaux devices also changed permissions. The exact same permissions 0600,
which is listed in udev.conf

I verified in my permissions file that
null:root:root:0666,tty[0-9]*:root:tty:0666, and psaux:root:root0644.

The only common things on these boxes is distcc. I'm currently trying to
disable distcc to see if it is the cause of the problem, but I doubt it
since distcc is setup to run as a non-privileged user. Will update after
testing with out distcc is completed.
