unable to "make release" in -CURRENT

[Daniel Rock]

Hi,

the following error is probably GEOM related.

Since a few weeks I am unable to "make release" anymore. It bails out while trying to prepare the floppies with the following error:
disklabel: /dev/md0c: Device not configured

The real md devices from devfs have major number 4:
# ls -l /dev/md*
crw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 86 23 Okt 22:10 /dev/md0
crw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 87 23 Okt 22:10 /dev/md0a

crw------- 1 root wheel 95, 0xffff00ff 23 Okt 22:10 /dev/mdctl


But the ones in the chroot'ed environment created manually with MAKEDEV still have major number 95:

"make release" should simply mount /dev in the chroot'ed environment, so we don't have any gap between statically created device nodes via MAKEDEV and dynamically ones via devfs, like in the following patch:
