wscons/wsmux question



While recently working with Nat to get the wsbell(4) device working,
I've noticed that both wsdisplay(4) and wsmouse(4) (as well as the new
wsbell(4)) have lots of code conditionally compiled based on "NWSMUX
0" (which is defined in wsmux.h resulting from the needs-flag in
wscons/files.wscons).

Does it really make sense to have a kernel with either wsdisplay(4) or
wsmouse(4) but _without_ any wsmux(4) devices?  It would really make
things a lot cleaner if we were able to remove some of this conditional
compilation.
