I noticed when I installed 2.1.5-RELEASE that it doesn't have any
partition in slice devices names for scsi disks in /dev:

relay:~> ls /dev/sd*s*
/dev/sd0s1  /dev/sd0s4  /dev/sd1s3  /dev/sd2s2  /dev/sd3s1  /dev/sd3s4
/dev/sd0s2  /dev/sd1s1  /dev/sd1s4  /dev/sd2s3  /dev/sd3s2
/dev/sd0s3  /dev/sd1s2  /dev/sd2s1  /dev/sd2s4  /dev/sd3s3                  

Shouldn't there be things like /dev/sd0s1e so I don't have to do an
explicit MAKEDEV to get it?
