Nope, more or less same stuff:

On 4.4-STABLE:

# \$FreeBSD: src/share/examples/drivers/make_pseudo_driver.sh,v 1.5.2.1 2001/07/25 15:56:09 dd Exp $"

From a fresh cvsuped -current:

# \$FreeBSD: src/share/examples/drivers/make_pseudo_driver.sh,v 1.6 2001/05/01 09:14:45 schweikh Exp $"

Last modification on -current is longer ago then on -STABLE. Both have the same symtons:

playtoy root examples/drivers # sh make_pseudo_driver.sh els
files.ELS: `device-driver' flag obsolete.
make: don't know how to make depend. Stop
make: don't know how to make els.o. Stop
make: no target to make.

Files created by the script:

/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/ELS
/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/files.ELS

Diff of ELS to GENERIC:
