Mandriva preload means very early module load.

I think all weirdness related with faketty is ioctl's
performed by varios system process which try load fonts,
set keyboard rate and so on. These ioctl's are preformed
on all range of TTY 1-63. If ftty files are already linked, 
then this task seems do some wrong. (but should not)

faketty-0.04 may help. It does not create ftty files
for all input family.
