The mdconfig(1) implies that -n will squelch `md' prefixing with any mdconfig
output...
-n When printing md device names, print only the unit number without
the md prefix.
.. but that isn't the case:
# mdconfig -ln
md1
# uname -a

1. The -n value only appears to be in use with the -a option (which doesn't
make a lot of sense to me, but I dunno...).
2. There appears to be a problem with the default n_flag setting (it is set to
random stack data unless specified on the command line), but even after fixing
that, md is still output -- I didn't really want to waste cycles chasing down
the culprit right now.
This issue is present in the RELENG_8 copy of FreeBSD as well.
