lock files, devfs, mgetty and pppd.



On my woody system, I cannot run both pppd and mgetty at the same time
on the same port.

The reason is when I configure mgetty to use /dev/tts/0,
it creates a lock file /var/run/LCK..0.

However pppd insists on creating a lock file called:
/var/lock/LCK..tts_0.

Are there any solutions to this other then using the
non-devfs device names?
