This problem has been fixed in FC5.  The pillot-link command-line
tools now work reliably for me.  I don't notice any difference between
using the dynamically-created /dev/pilot and the static dev file I was
using with FC4.

Likely, anybody who knows enough about the code doesn't care, and
nobody who cares knows enough to fix it.  gnome-pilot has never been
well-maintained and I found it flaky before the 0.12 fiasco.  I
suspect that third-party developers are also waiting for pilot-link
0.12 to stabilize and have a release before they update to the new
API.
