	If I want to permanently change the permissions for a device, I
add en entry to /etc/devfs.conf.  Right?
	But that doesn't get picked up until the next time devd is
started.  If I want to change the permissions right now, can I just
go into /dev and use chmod or do I need to fool around with
devfs(8)?
