  Log:
  SVN rev 181282 on 2008-08-04 07:01:42Z by cperciva
  
  Dereferencing uninitialized pointers considered harmful.  Prior to this
  commit, calling i386_parsedev(..., X, ...) where X is "ad", "bge", or
  any other disk or network device name without a unit number, would
  result in dereferencing whatever happened to be on the stack where the
  variable "cp" is stored.
