     The shell script MAKEDEV, found in the /dev directory, is used to create
     the common special files.  See special(8) for a more complete discussion
     of special files.

[milano]/home/milano/incoming> man special
man: no entry for special in the manual.

try `man special`.

Add special.8 to the /src/share/man8 hierarchie or remove the reference.
