Description Murray Stokely freebsd_committer

The device.hints functionality is not mentioned anywhere in the
Handbook.  The information about this drastic change in FreeBSD 5.0
must be better documented before we release FreeBSD 5.0.
device.hints(5) is a good place to start, but the material belongs in
the Handbook (where new-users will look for it).

Added to the handbook, and thus should appear in 24 hours.  But you know
