If I'm reading the System Admin Guide correctly
char-major-5 is either /dev/ttyS5 or /dev/cua5 (which isn't used anymore)

char-major-6 is for the printers

rgrep  net-pf-10 /etc/*  shows that its used for IPv6.  to stop the
message 

/etc/modules.conf:# alias net-pf-10 off         # IPv6
should work
