I can't tell from ioconf.c why it doesn't work. What makes you sure it
doesn't?

That's because you can't say "disable device0" in userconf. You can
either say "disable device" or "disable number" where number is what you
get from "list" or "find".
The reason for that is that it only looks at cf_name in the cfdata
structure.

No, it's just a iattrdat structure. config(1) will dump in ioconf.c all
the interface attributes it knows of; this is a bug/limitation which I
never bothered looking at in details.
That said, there is no valid reason adt74* should be interface
attributes, I'll commit a fix for that.
