Saw this in last night's logs:

Nov 13 15:56:13 taz3 login: chmod(/dev/tty??): No such file or directory
Nov 13 15:56:13 taz3 login: chmod(/dev/tty??): No such file or directory

Seemed odd to me - I can understand why login does a chmod of the attached
tty when setting up the user's environment, but I don't know why it got
"/dev/tty??" as the tty.  I'm sending this to security@ only because I
figure there's the small chance this is some sort of new compromise
attempt... anyone else seen this kind of thing?
