Since you cited it worked for you in Lenny, I tried to trace it and
found that it was not a debootstrap issue but a makedev one (hence
reassign).
Look bellow:
,----

Looking at MAKEDEV source code it confirms it:

| # not really devices, we use the /proc filesystem
| symlink fd $procfs/self/fd
| symlink stdin fd/0
| symlink stdout fd/1
| symlink stderr fd/2

So you were right: the issue has been fixed for Lenny and we don't
need to worry about it ;-)
Cheers,
