How about this?
     http://gehenna.as.wakwak.ne.jp/dev/new-makedev/

MAKEDEV.<arch> - machine dependent part (installed as MAKEDEV)
MAKEDEV.majors - machine dependent major list (generate by devmajors.awk)

machine independent parts:

MAKEDEV.isdn
        pseudo
        scsipi
        subr
        usb
        wscons
        ...

Machine independent parts called from MD-MAKEDEV and shared with all ports.

These are imcomplete yet, but reduced total script size.
