Ah, yeah I've never liked that particular assignment, but didn't switch it to use makedev(3) in fear of portability issues, and because I didn't think it would pose problems currently. After having checked now, I see that at least NetBSD and OpenBSD would have problems with large minor numbers. OTOH it seems makedev(3) got removed from latest Mac OS X, so I'm adding a compat function for similar cases out there. Queued for my next push.
