This is made "automagically" by libnetfs if I remember correctly (ie. if it
sees that st_mode defines a character device, it automatically returns the
string "/hurd/chrdev x y").  Have a look at the thread starting at
http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/help-hurd/2002-08/msg00076.html .

Hope this helps,
Ludovic.
