Description josh 2000-01-13 01:10:00 UTC
	MAKEDEV doesnt create the IPFilter nodes in /dev, namely:

		/dev/ipl
		/dev/ipnat
		/dev/ipstate
		/dev/ipauth

	This makes it rather problematic using ipf(8) and friends.

Fix: The following patch adds support to /usr/src/etc/MAKEDEV so that:

	MAKEDEV ipl

	creates the proper nodes.

=======
How-To-Repeat: 
	ipf -V reports:

	open device: Permission denied
	ioctl(SIOCGETFS: Bad file descriptor
	ipf: IP Filter: v3.3.3 (192)

	as a result of not being able to open /dev/ipl
