It does here:

root@fireball / # ls -al /dev/root
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 10 07:12 /dev/root -> sda6
root@fireball / #

Since this appears to be a issue now, I'm switching to eudev.  For some
reason, I can't mask enough to keep it as it is now.  I hope I don't
loose my uptime. 

root@fireball / # uptime
 18:16:17 up 120 days, 11:25,  9 users,  load average: 0.25, 0.63, 1.09
root@fireball / #
