Well, I would change this into ${MDDEVICE}a instead, but both changes
are just a kludge.

The real reason seems to lie in the GEOM_BSD to GEOM_PART_BSD
transition: I have just tested the same scenario on a 7.1 box, and when
you run bsdlabel there, it creates both md0a AND md0c in /dev.

This seems to have changed, maybe unintentionally, with GEOM_PART_BSD.
