    Sounds good to me -- I ran into this recently with the audit
    implementation because Solaris embeds a "udev_t" in the BSM audit format.
    Since the format is handled by the kernel as well as user space, I had to
    do the usual gymnastics to work around the udev_t confusion. I'd love to
    see that resolved, thanks!
