Just found another breakage due to nvd becoming a symlimk. I use gkrellm as
my system monitor and, after the update, my SSD showed no activity. Easy
fix to edit the configuration to disable nvd0 and enable nda0, but another
case of a tool not following the symlink.

If I get a little time tomorrow. I'll try finding the code in gkrellm and
see if I can figure out whether the breakage is a roble in the port or a
system issue, but no promises.
