17 The latest version of Portage fixes this.

23 I think the best place would be /etc/profile.

29 This will be fixed in 1.0_rc6; we now provide a /dev-state/compat directory; if
30 you create a backup symlink there, it'll get copied to /dev at boot-time. We
31 may also add a shutdown script that performs automatic symlink backups to a
32 tarball so they can be restored on boot. Too bad devfsd doesn't store
33 symlinks. I bet it could with a patch.
