"MAKEDEV all" is designed to create a generic set of devices that
covers most situations. It _doesn't_ cover all situations - in
particular sound devices and disk slices. You have to make those
devices manually.
In this case, I don't believe it's appropriate to automatically
create ad4/ad5 because the majority of people won't have them -
common hardware provides 2 IDE channels, each capable of
supporting 2 devices. If you have a 3rd IDE channel, then you
would have had to create the wd/ad devices manually anyway.
I'd recommend "find /dev -type b -ls", or for the more paranoid
"find /dev -type d -o -type c -o -type l -o -ls", followed by
manual MAKEDEV or rm commands as appropriate.
