Yes; and from what little I know about this, it is a necessary thing
to have atapicam as a kernel device because USB flash drives require it:

camcontrol devlist
<PLEXTOR CD-R   PX-W1610A 1.04>    at scbus1 target 0 lun 0 (cd0,pass0)
<SanDisk Cruzer Mini 0.3>          at scbus2 target 0 lun 0 (da0,pass1)

Without this:

device       atapicam

there is no use for this:

device  da  # Direct Access (disks)

What I cannot figure out is why only two people are reporting the
existence of this problem.
