It turns out that there is an additional problem on Indy's -- the
device file /dev/hdsp/hdsp0events does not get created after the
update from IRIX 6.2, because the chkdev script run at boot time only
runs the appropriate MAKEDEV command if /dev/hdsp/hdsp0control does
not exist. (O2's will not have this problem, because hdsp0events
existed under IRIX 6.3).
So, we will need an additional fix to ensure that the device file is
created after the update.
