If what devname(3) returns doesn't exist, or doesn't match the desired device, fall back to scanning /dev for a matching node, and as a last resort, if that fails, try to create the node ourselves as /dev/dump. Add comments to several variables and functions. Clean up syslog(3) usage; use %m instead of strerror(3). Other minor cleanup. END
