know how to fix it:

root:users is obviously wrong, but should the device be 666? 660 and

MAKEDEV uses root:root 660, is access to this device a security concern?

The new release of tcp-wrappers I uploaded yesterday to experimental,
on my ppc system running woody randomly segfaults about one in ten times
before main() is started.
I know it happens before main() because I tried to add a open(2) call as
the first statement of main() and no file is created.

The problem is that the original CHRP boot disk for potato is ext2

It needs to be a FAT disk with a kernel copied over it. No other files

I see the boot disk is ext2, and AFAIK openfirmware can only read FAT
disks (I haven't been able to use the ext2 disk, I had to copy the
kernel).
