This brings up the question. How did devfs get into the kernel with only one maintainer?
Have you looked at the MAINTAINERS file? Just about everything has only a single maintainer.
And, can we avoid its replacement and just go back to the bad old days?
That's a very strange way of saying thank $DEITY and good riddence to devfs.
I believe lindows came precompiled with devfs, and of course, I wouldn't dream of compiling a lindows kernel without devfs, even if I could get the thing to compile, which I can't.
Use a real distro and perhaps you wouldn't have such problems.

As posted on the gentoo home page:
Devfs was declared obsolete today in the 2.6-test kernel!?!
On 16 August. The maintainer has vanished, or at least ceased responding to email:
