MAKEDEV: arithmetic expression: syntax error: "0 * 16 + 08"


and the only place were I see 08 is in

ugen*)  
        unit=${i#ugen}
        ugen=ugen$unit
        major=64
        for j in 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15
        do
                ugenj=$ugen.$j  
                rm -f $ugenj
                mknod $ugenj c $major $(($unit * 16 + $j))
                chmod 600 $ugenj
        done
        ;;

which has been there since forever.. Ah got it:

Recognise octal and hexadecimal constants in expressions.

in src/bin/sh/arith_lex.l

So, that (s/ 0/ /) needs changing in nearly every ports' MAKEDEV (!)
