Upgrading my laptop to the March 27th snapshot this morning, I noticed
that wd0 was no longer seen, but sd0 was.  Not quite C|N>K, but close
enough since I've been used to seeing my USB memory sticks end up at
that device.  Then after a few seconds I remmembered the developer
blog entry over at undeadly which explains this rather well (see
http://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20070324012409 ).  

Changing a few characters in the fstab did the trick, and the machine
seems happy enough with this.
