Thank you for testing, Sven. I'll get
this change committed and then publish a new version of the SysV
suite soon.

Sorry for being hasty.
I tested the patch recommended by Petter, with adjustments to the
current bootlogd version.
Looks like it's working, at least I don't have a greedy bootlogd
process anymore, and the boot logfile also looks good, with the
root cause logged:
...
stty: 'standard input': Input/output error
...
FYI, here's the patchfile I used:
