Not during cast... TRACK_ROOT is for _runtime_ finding stuff, meaning runtime
of installed software _after_ casting (afaik imho etc).
I understood that $INSTALL_ROOT is the place where stuff goes when casting
the spell ... init.d installs $INSTALL_ROOT/etc/sysconfig/devices and it is
the same POV to read it from there. When casting for a chroot, TRACK_ROOT
will be "", so that would pick up the host system's file - which is only
appropriate in case $INSTALL_ROOT == "".

Luckily enough, this business should get easier when we have the castfs stuff
in mainline. Then it should be transparent.
