That "ct" conflict

I'd like to put some words in support of Roman.

Looking at CVS history, "ct" was _legally_ assigned to Cronyx Tau
adapter back in 1998 (in sys/conf/majors), so it's rather pointless
and unpolite to request renaming now.

I think that PC98's SCSI "ct" should be renamed instead, to avoid
this nasty conflict in sys/conf/* files, as it was imported in
FreeBSD much later, in 2001, and obviously sys/conf/majors was not
checked.


Cheers,
