I'm aware of this problem but not yet sure who is responsible for
it. Looks like a udev problem.

If you are running the 'df' as user root you won't notice the
problem. To fix the issue for normal users as well just manually
invoke 'umount /dev/.static/dev'.

The issue is on my todolist and I'll provide a fix soon.
