I think it makes more sense to use raw/rawctl when > you have all your raw devices in raw/ subdirectory (e.g. /dev/raw/raw<N>). The raw tool looks for /dev/rawctl first and the fallback to /dev/raw/rawctl is named DEVFS_*. Should we turn that order around and remove the devfs notion from the raw tool and let udev create a dev/raw/rawctl node?
