 Erm... What do you mean, 'wait'?  What Tom is saying is that
 the branch currently referred to as -STABLE, which *is* what was
 formerly known as 4.8-STABLE, but is right now called 4.9-RC due
 to the pending 4.9-RELEASE -- well, that branch already documents
 that ed needs miibus.  I can also confirm that: my ed(4) manpage
 shows 'device miibus' in the synopsis section.
 
 This was already MFC'd in ed.4 rev. 1.19.2.10 from February 17th,
 committed by - surprise, surprise - Tom Rhodes :)
 
 G'luck,
 Peter

 If this sentence were in Chinese, it would say something else.
