Umm, guys this needs much broader discussion than just sneaking in
a patch under the covers.

It basically does re-introduce devfs under a different name, and from
looking at the implementation it might not be quite as bad a Gooch's
original, but it's certainly worse than Adam Richters rewrite the we
never ended up merging.

I was interested in this Richter devfs rewrite, since I was unfamiliar with it.

For the benefit of the thread, here is a URL that people can examine:
