I think the way to handle this is to have a devd conf file, similar to
sysctl.conf. However, rather than adding another conf file to /etc, what
do y'all think of /etc/conf/devd? Personally, I think rc.devd should have
been a conf file anyway, but I won't quibble. :)

I have an eye toward eventually migrating /etc/*.conf to /etc/conf, since
/etc is too cluttered (IMO). However, to handle this particular issue, I'm
thinking we should repo-copy /etc/rc.devd to /etc/conf/devd, and adjust
/etc/rc.d/devd accordingly.

What do y'all think?

Doug
