  SVN rev 203277 on 2010-01-31 11:48:25Z by ed
  
  Allow mknod(8) to be only invoked with a pathname as an argument.
  
  In 99% of the cases people just want to recreate device nodes they
  removed from /dev. There is no reason to pass the additional "c 0 0"
  anymore.
  
  Also slightly improve the manpage. Remove references to non-existent
  device names and platforms.
