This bug report belongs most probably to the 'udev' package.
Changing the group of '/dev/fd0' from 'disk' to 'floppy' causes 'eject'
to shut off the floppy drive light after a few seconds, although some
messages are shown.
The bug is therefore caused by creating the device with the wrong
group.
The 'MAKEFLOPPIES' program in 'fdutils' makes the floppy devices
belong to the group 'floppy'.
After some search I found analogous lines for a 'block' device in
'/lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules'.
SUBSYSTEM=="block", GROUP="disk"
SUBSYSTEM=="block", KERNEL=="sr[0-9]*", GROUP="cdrom"
Adding
SUBSYSTEM=="block", KERNEL=="fd[0-9]*", GROUP="floppy"
created the floppy device with the right group.
