There's a related problem. /sbin/hotplug. I keep seeing odd failures
from /sbin/hotplug scripts which go away when I ensure that fd0,1,2 are
directed at something real.
It's rather annoying because it currently means that, when my PCMCIA net
interface on the firewall comes up, the IPv4 configuration works fine
but IPv6 configuration falls dead on its nose without any explaination
why.
And, like I say, redirecting fd0,1,2 fixes it.
