Upgrading an Arch Linux 0.8 installation to the latest version (pacman 3.0.4.2), causes /etc/securetty to be overwriten with a default file.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Arch 0.8 from the CD
2. Setup /etc/securetty (add ttyS0 for example)
3. Update to pacman 3 - pacman -Sy / pacman -S pacman
4. Update system - pacman -Syu
This task depends upon

@lsdxtz: the problem is that filesystem-0.8-7 does not have etc/securetty in backup array.
