It looks like you need to use "device" instead of "pseudo-device". This is
in /sys/conf/NOTES on 5.0:
# Coda stuff:
options CODA #CODA filesystem.
device vcoda 4 #coda minicache <-> venus comm.
At the moment I'm just using the Coda loadable kernel module (coda.ko)
and not staticly linking Coda into the kernel -- it's easier to debug
it this way.

Coda 5 seems to be compatible with this kernel code even though it's from
an earlier release. There may be missing features.
The procedure I'm using to set up a Coda client is this:
venus-setup server 20000
kldload coda
venus
