strictly a security hole, but neither is it a very good idea. Replace
it with a symlink to /dev/null to happify programs that expect it.
It is suggested that users of the jail environment modify the jail's
syslog.conf to not send stuff to /dev/console, but instead syslog
it somewhere else. Such as a loghost, potentially even to the host
environment's syslog.

devices because accessible by group wheel instead of group operator.
Didn't fix fishy group for rsa*.ctl. This device should have group operator
if that is safe, or mode 600 and group wheel.
Removed ssc and uk*.
Removed bogus (redundant) chmod's to 600.
that it does not reset the printer when opened. This fixes the problem
of printing a document almost till the end and then resetting the
printer when the next print job is started.

Also, remove all but the ums0 device from the fixit target 'to save
precious i-nodes on the fixit floppy'.
We were supposed to get these in far earlier and didn't, hence
the commit after feature freeze. A promise is a promise. :)

Improve the internal mknod() to understand being passed an (optional)
user:group specification.
Don't apply root:wheel to nodes explicitly anywhere, it's the default.
Remove an odd looking uucp:wheel assignment, as it's inconsistent with
all the other tty?? devices.

Fixed some style bugs for cam (superflous umask and missing newline).
Fixed bogons for apm. The pattern "apm*" matched too many things; apm
and apmctl were both made twice by `MAKEDEV all'. Hopefully no one
depends on `MAKEDEV apm0' making apm or on `MAKEDEV apm' making apmctl.
MAKEDEV can now run (with /sbin/chown and /bin/chgrp, still) without
any /usr. The default PATH for MAKEDEV is now "/sbin:/bin" to prevent
against further spammage of /usr programs in MAKEDEV. In the event
of an emergency, the variable "MAKEDEVPATH" can be used to replace
PATH, but I don't know what that emergency could be.
Let me know if you have any problems. I've tested it as well as
I could, which basically means everything except for RocketPorts.

longer really suitable as a default to create the various /dev nodes
to be contained on the fixit floppy, since all our proud new devide
nodes finally made the fixit floppy run over...
So instead create a new target titled `fixit' which creates just the
dev nodes for a single unit per each default driver; whoever needs
more of them is free to create whatever he needs, perhaps after
killing unused nodes before. There were more than 700 /dev nodes on
the floppy before that action, and it's still around 350 now. I doubt
all the various /dev/ugen* entries are really useful on such a tool,
so people, please check, and if you feel like more could be eliminated
from that floppy, kill'em.
While i was at it, removed traces of ft(8) that still survived even
though the driver has long since been dead.
That's step #1. #2 will follow...

Notice: Over time, no earlier than FreeBSD 5.0, the "r*" names may
be discontinued. A fair number of programs and scripts need to
(un)learn some tricks before then.
This will take no effect until you either run MAKEDEV by hand or
reinstall your system.
WARNING: Kernels older than approx November 22 will not be happy
about a /dev created with MAKEDEV after this commit. Please update
