I vaguely recall playing with "ambiguous" in find_vmgenid_dev(), but it
didn't work as I expected (or, it wasn't necessary to use). Not sure
about the details, I only remember that, when calling
object_resolve_path_type() like above, from within a realize function,
the object under realization is already considered existent, so if we're
realizing the second (or later) instance of the class,
object_resolve_path_type() will return NULL (regardless of "ambiguous").
If we're realizing the very first instance, then
object_resolve_path_type() will return non-NULL.

I don't mind "ambiguous" if it can be made work fine, just thought that
I'd add this tidbit.

Thanks,
Laszlo
