I'd prefer to not add this patch to devfsd unless there is some
indication from Marcelo and Linus that this patch will be applied
(otherwise devfsd would grow with unused cruft). Have you had any
response about the kernel patch?

Please let me know if you get word back, or when the patch is
available in either 2.4.x or 2.5.x. Then re-send the patch to devfsd
to me, and I'll apply it.
