blogd failing to startup at boot

In my startup scripts the following is failing:

#
# Start blogd, requires /proc and /dev/pts.
# Export the real device in variable REDIRECT.
#
REDIRECT="`showconsole 2>/dev/null`"
test -x /sbin/blogd && /sbin/blogd $REDIRECT
export REDIRECT

At this point I have already started devfsd.  I think showconsole
would probably be the culprit.  Here is what I get after the
system has booted:

showconsole: Warning: the ioctl TIOCGDEV is not know by the kernel
/dev/pts/2

I'm not sure what the problem is here.

Aside from this everything else seems to working fine.  I had to change
an entry in /etc/fstab for /dev/cdrom to the actual device.
Thanks for any help.
