Besides, the package already does create one, just not as an "officially
owned" file.  Perhaps mknod in the %install and then add to %files?

Also, potential security hole in %postun.  What if some disgruntled does
ln -s /etc/passwd /etc/conf.modules.tmp

Yes, such an exploit would require root access to set up, but. . .
