In the 2.4 implementation, providing this one capability by

I wonder if device-mapper (slightly hacked) wouldn't be a better approach for
2.6+.
It appeared from the original posting that their "cluster-wide devfs"
actually supported all types of device nodes, not just block devices. I
don't know whether accessing a character device on another node would
ever be useful, but certainly using device-mapper wouldn't help for that
case.
