--- Comment #6 from Peter Grehan <grehan at FreeBSD.org> ---
Thanks - yes, easy repro on 10. Doesn't crash on CURRENT, but the bug is
still there in that the leading zeros are stripped when the devfs entry
is created. This in turn means that it isn't possible to connect to the
'B' end using the same text string.

After a chat with Neel, the proposed solution will be to allow any valid
devfs character string between the 'nmdm' and trailing 'A' or 'B'. That way
you can even encode the VM name in the nmdm device name :)

I'll see if I can get this into CURRENT shortly, and then MFC in time for
10.1.
