I'm trying to make sd40 and sd41, and MAKEDEV is failing.

Now I could fix MAKEDEV to not kick it out as an error, but there must be
a reason that it's not allowed.

(I'm using wired devices on a 3940UW and 2940's, which allows a total of
40 some odd devices to be attached.)


Is there some bogus kernel limit?  (Or unbogus as the case may be?)
