>Description:


/dev/null affected by unlink process, which is not good and leads to hiding null from devfs tree.

It must be immunable to unlinking




>How-To-Repeat:


please run this small script (part of one configure script)

------------------
#!/bis/sh
cat >conftest.cpp <<EOF
int main() { return 0; }
EOF
gcc -o /dev/null conftest.cpp
------------------

after gcc ends   node /dev/null will be absent and not autorecovered to available state.


>Fix:


unknown :(
