I'm using 2.4.5-pre5 and before on 2.4.x (without -ac) and don't have such problem.
boston:root:/tmp> mount -o loop ram /mnt boston:root:/tmp> umount /mnt boston:root:/tmp> strace losetup -d /dev/loop0 execve("/sbin/losetup", ["losetup", "-d", "/dev/loop0"], [/* 47 vars */]) = 0 brk(0) = 0x804b408 open("/etc/ld.so.preload", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
Did you umount the loopback device or ensure that nobody is using it?
