In any case, that wouldn't explain why reverting to the 09-12 snapshot fixes the problem.  Are you sure there's nothing in the 09-17 Changelog that could account for this?  There do seem to be some network-related changes, though I don't claim to understand them:

These changes only affect files, not ttys.

The failing chmod(/dev/tty1, 0622) is actually trying to change the
permissions on internal objects, like events, mutexes, and pipes, which
together constitute a tty/pty.
