auditpipe leak?

If I repeatedly do:

# praudit /dev/auditpipe
^C

I end up with rather a lot of /dev/auditpipe*

crw-------  1 root  wheel    0, 137 21 Oct 17:51 /dev/auditpipe0
crw-------  1 root  wheel    0, 138 21 Oct 17:51 /dev/auditpipe1
crw-------  1 root  wheel    0, 141 21 Oct 17:51 /dev/auditpipe2
crw-------  1 root  wheel    0, 142 21 Oct 17:51 /dev/auditpipe3
crw-------  1 root  wheel    0, 143 21 Oct 17:51 /dev/auditpipe4

The numbers seem to increment forever, in testing, I got up to
/dev/auditpipe50 before rebooting to clean them up (I expect
just restarting devfs would've been enough, in retrospect).

Is this a known issue?
