Hi, for the faulty behaviour of bash "test -e" I added a workaround for udev without having to install /bin/dash.
The bug is only present when HAVE_DEV_STDIN is not defined, which is
the case when /dev/std{in,err,out} is not present at build time.
The build logs all define HAVE_DEV_STDIN - except sparc.
From the sparc build log[1]:
[..]
checking whether /dev/stdin stdout stderr are available... absent
[..]
Since there is no build log for i386 I suspect that there the /dev/std*
are also absent and HAVE_DEV_STDIN is not defined.
The result is different behaviour of "test -e" on different architectures,
which is not good.
For a fix of this bug I suggest making that all build machines have the
/dev/std{in,err,out} files.
Regards,
Bastian

PS: I CC'ed the sparc build daemon to check the /dev/std{in,err,out}
existance.
