Should MAKEDEV be able to create /dev/filemon ?



While trying to test some recent changes to filemon(4), I discovered
that not only does a default system installation not create a
/dev/filemon but the supplied /dev/MAKEDEV script doesn't even know
how to create it!

It should be fairly easy to add a new entry

	filemon)
		mkdev filemon c 202 666
		;;

to the big case statement?

Is there some reason why this was not done?
