ports/136676: hald/GNOME (I guess) (re) mounted /usr and /var through their /dev/ufsid devices

Hmm.  Just noticed some daily status messages and I suspect that
the situation is not as clear as I'd thought before, but I'm not
sure what is going on.

gmirror status:
      Name    Status  Components
mirror/gm0  DEGRADED  ad4

and ls /dev/ad*:
/dev/ad4
/dev/ad4s1
/dev/ad6
/dev/ad6s1
/dev/ad6s1a
/dev/ad6s1b
/dev/ad6s1c
/dev/ad6s1d
/dev/ad6s1e

So, clearly ad6 has somehow fallen out of the mirror (it was
mirroring ad4), and when that happened the images of the
partition table were picked up as individual file systems, which
hald proceeded to try to mount.

I suspect that this is really a gmirror and/or devd sort of
problem, rather than a GNOME/hald sort of problem.

Any other information that I can provide?
