The reason for this hack was that isofs starts up /dev/hd2, and this would
keep the mach device opened even after isofs went away.

This is no longer true: storeio keeps track of the users and closes the Mach
device after the last user went away.

It's both.  They differ in the partition naming, not in the device naming.
