Bug#230857: patch for thought
This is an experimental patch (against CVS) which attempts to handle
upgrading from any libc version whether or not initscripts has been updated.
It's a little hackish, and it's probably not quite the right thing,
and I'm not really up to testing it, but I hope it helps. :-) It does
depend on upgraded initscripts 'adopting' mountvirtfs; I'm not really
sure whether it does that or not.
