Grrr. Stupid me. The most important point is that the above thing happens *before* a /dev/fd is created. After a /dev/fd is creating, it works the same for old and new hurd. Hence the patch. It makes sure that /dev/fd exists before calling dpkg. I creates also /dev/null because some script needs it. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
