Ok, found the culprit. It turns out moused is being called from
devd... this is all probably related to the startup mess I reported 2
weeks ago with my NIC. I'm seeing a lot of additional problems in
terms of keeping track of daemons; for instance syslogd is getting
started up twice, but the first instance isn't recording a PID and the
second one is dying because the first one is bound to the address.
Agh...
Could we just unwind this rc.d mess? It seems to be causing issues
and wasn't very thoroughly tested before commit.
Thanks,
