Hi,

There is a bug in the dev-1.6-1.src.rpm and in the dev-2.3-1.src.rpm in
3.0.3 and in 4.0:

lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           17 Oct  8 16:04 /dev/stdin -> ../proc/self/fd/1
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           17 Oct  8 16:04 /dev/stdout -> ../proc/self/fd/0

That's obviously wrong. stdin should point to fd 0 and stdout to fd 1.
It seems to be broken on i386 and on alphas.
