Another weiredity I've come across in my 2.3 crusade: /dev/nvram
doesn't seem to work anymore.
this problem arises from a different source. the nvram driver in
drivers/macintosh needs to be converted to use the new driver initalization
scheme (like the driver in drivers/char/nvram.c)
there were some posts about this about a month or so ago.
