Edit /etc/init.d/bootmisc as such:
# Reset pam_console permissions
rm -rf /var/run/console.lock /var/run/console/*
#
# Clean up any stale locks.
#
ebegin "Cleaning /var/lock, /var/run"
#( find /var/lock -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm -f -- 1>&2 )
( find /var/lock -type f -exec rm -f {} 1>&2 \; )
#
Notice the commented line is the original, comment that out and add the line
under. I got this fix from Azarah the day after that version of baselayout
was released, so I'm willing to bet it'll be fixed in the next release:)
