And that seems to be just what it is.  During one restart, I saw the 
devd message, but also a part of a moused message before it locked up. 
I have a USB mouse, without moused explicitly enabled in /etc/rc.conf.

The lockup with devd starts with r271022.  It can't always be started 
after startup, feels like a race.
