>Description:
	with "fdesc /dev fdesc rw,union 0 0" in /etc/fstab, the machine
	won't even survive the /etc/rc.* scripts, panic with something
	like "ufs rehash..." and reboot.

>How-To-Repeat:
	behaviour is 100% reproducable, although having "noauto" in the
	fstab entry and mounting fdesc manually will let the system live
	for seconds and minutes.  DO NOT automount fdesc on a production
	machine over a ssh-connection; it won't enter multiuser!

>Fix:
	none yet.  fdesc seems unusable.
