I also have this same issue. I changed the permissions manually in
rc.local at every boot, but it stil affects portions of the boot cycle.
particularly, it happens before logcheck runs, as I get an email
containing the following

Cron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>    if [ -x /usr/sbin/logcheck ]; then nice -n10 
/usr/sbin/logcheck -R; fi
/usr/sbin/logcheck: line 533: /dev/null: Permission denied
/usr/sbin/logcheck: line 619: /dev/null: Permission denied

It would be nice to fix. Is /dev/null generated by udev only? or is it
hard coded into the /dev/ folder to support early boot mechanisms before
udev starts?
