I'm sure it does something magical that makes a lot of sense, but it doesn't 
seem to even work with my kernel (2.6.10), and there are assorted 
(niche-specific, non-mainstream) things I've never managed to get working 
with any kernel newer than this.

Maybe if I wait long enough, it will all go away.  I didn't bother with devfs 
either, and look how that turned out.  :)

If not, I'll deal with it when I no longer have the option to ignore it.
