I don't know if and how I should make a bug report about this, as I don't
know for sure what exactly the problem is... What I know, however, is that
my daily script is also bugged:

Local system status:
uptime: /dev//umount: /cdrom: not currently mounted
umount: No such file or directory
uptime: /dev//: /proc: not currently mounted
umount: /var:: No such file or directory
uptime: /dev// not currently mounted
umount: /usr: not cur: No such file or directory
uptime: /dev//rently mounted
umount: /home: not currently : No such file or directory
uptime: /dev//mounted
umount: /dos: not currently mounted
: No such file or directory
 2:00AM  up  6:08, 1 user, load averages: 1.28, 1.80, 1.74


What is _that_???

I just cvsupped the latest sources. I'm going to do a make world when my
HD space will permit it, and I'll rebuild my kernel. We'll see then.

Hoping that all this nightmare will end soon.

Si l'image donne l'illusion de savoir
C'est que l'adage pretend que pour croire,
L'important ne serait que de voir
