/* Usage: mknod [-m mode] [--mode=mode] path {bcu} major minor
		make a block or character device node
          mknod [-m mode] [--mode=mode] path p
		make a FIFO (named pipe)

   Options:
   -m, --mode=mode	Set the mode of created nodes to MODE, which is
			symbolic as in chmod and uses the umask as a point of
			departure.
