'makedevs' is a utility used to create a batch of devices with
one command.
- .

There are two choices for command line behaviour, the interface
as used by LEAF/Linux Router Project, or a device table file.
- .

'leaf' is traditionally what busybox follows, it allows multiple
devices of a particluar type to be created per command.
e.g. /dev/hda[0-9]
Device properties are passed as command line arguments.
- .

'table' reads device properties from a file or stdin, allowing
a batch of unrelated devices to be made with one command.
User/group names are allowed as an alternative to uid/gid.
