It's not fixed anywhere yet - it sometimes works in current, and
sometimes doesn't. I've been meaning to patch it up, but it the problem
is what I think it is, the patching up is a pretty big operation.
It doesn't mean you can't use jails with devfs in 9.1, just that you
can't use them with jail.conf. The old jail rc file that's all
shell-based is still the official jail startup method, and that one
still works. So existing systems will still work as expected, hence no
errata.
