Should MAKEDEV be updated also? acd0 and wcd0 use the same major device number and are said to be (I use a SCSI CD-ROM drive and can't test it myself) compatible. Just using the device nodes /dev/(r|%)wcd0 should give the desired effect. Thus updating MAKEDEV is not necessary but IMHO desireable for new users and simplicity.
