Patch to fix the problem

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0

I keep seeing message like the following in my /var/log/messages:

ntp[3623]: /etc/rc.status: line 57: /dev/stderr: No such device or address

The code in line 57 in the file /etc/rc.status is indeed wrong; I have attached a patch to this report which uses the more appropriate re-direction ">&2" instead of "/dev/stderr".

Reproducible: Always
