I can also see this.  IMHO, that's an artifact of how device on-demand
alias creation is working.  Cc to Poul-Henning, maybe he can shed some
light on this.

Ah, hmm, i think that's a problem of "ls -F", actually.  Look here.

j@uriah 90% ls -l /dev/fd1*
crw-r-----  1 root  operator    9,  64 Apr  1 22:37 /dev/fd1
j@uriah 91% /bin/ls /dev/fd1c
/dev/fd1c
j@uriah 92% ls -l /dev/fd1*
crw-r-----  1 root  operator    9,  64 Apr  1 22:37 /dev/fd1
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel            4 Apr  2 20:34 /dev/fd1c@ -> fd0

Plain /bin/ls (without any options) works as expected.
