The first "c" is part of the standard name for the whole of a (labelled)
disk device.  phk is busily breaking this standard.  The second "c" is
because cdcontrol tries tacking on a "c" in case the user forgot it.
Here the user didn't specify a device name, so the default of "cd0c"
was tried, and since that was broken recently, it doesn't work, and
a "c" is tacked on to it.  The user can work around this easily enough
by specifying the device, except in the !DEVFS case when the device
doesn't exist.

This is because rev.1.62 of scsi_cd.c axed labelling support.
