I'm running 5.4-RELEASE.

When you mentioned that it might be a bug, I went and looked at
/usr/src/lib/libdevinfo/devinfo.c using the cvs web depository.  I found
that devinfo_generation = 0 was added to the end of the devinfo_free
function starting at line 367.  I added the code and recompiled just
that library, and now everything seems to be working ok, except now I'm
getting a bunch of garbage on the serial number of the USB flash drive.
 I'm not sure if it's my code, or if it's a bug in the library.
