Hi! Jens Seidel reported a bug to Debian about a wrong message on brctl, you can see it at http://bugs.debian.org/383938, it is kind of the continuation of the ENODEV bug #348617 that was already patched by Stephen on the git. I have applied the same solution that Stephen applied for the first one, follows the patch against git plus a minor exclamation mark modification I did so that all ENODEV messages were exclamative (Stephen patch had missed that mark).
