devd hang after upgrade to 8.0-STABLE

Just wondering if others have seen this too.

Yesterday, after upgrading from 7.2-stable to 8.0-stable, my server would hang
on startup on the "Starting devd" line. bootverbose did not get me any more 
information, and I had to manually hit ^C or ^\ to continue booting.

Also, the reboot command will hang after killing syslogd. Only a reboot -q will
actually reboot the system.

Now, I've disabled devd in rc.conf, but this is not an ideal configuration for me.

Any hints on how to further debug this?

cheers,
Ruben
