First of all, big, LARGE Thank you Loïc, for the great work you've done about this bug. Somehow I haven't received earlier messages for #621137 even when I'm subscribed, or else I'd reply sooner. I wanted to get rid of that patch completely, together with CONFIG_STANDALONE_SHELL busybox config op

Many thanks, Loïc! I was beginning to feel REALLY puzzled by some of the inconsistent behaviour I was seeing (on HP MediaVault 2120/5020 as well as NSLU2). It's good to hear someone else getting that too, and some progress towards a solution (and a workaround I can try). Barry On 6 Apr 2011,

I've applied Loïc's patch to busybox git, but when I try to build a package to release, bits of the patch show up in debian/patches/debian-changes-1:1.18.4-1.1 Can someone who understands the byzantine complexity of this IMNSHO unncessesary path system make the upload? Perhaps you might also want
