Why?  I easily got it running after just a few minutes of debugging.
Indeed, it's been working fine for me for the last few days.
Didn't you read the whole email?  The solution is contained within.
If you want to simply test it out, do this:

cd /dev/net
ln -s ../misc .

That should allow openvpn to open the tun interface.
If that works, and you can't figure out what lines in the devfs
configuration to edit, post to this list and I'll see if I can determine
what exactly it is that I changed in the (devfsd) config.
