>Description:
	MAKEDEV creates the tape changer devices (ch*) as owned
	by root:operator; but permissions crw-r----- so users
	in the operator group can't operate the changer.  Backup
	systems like AMANDA normally run as operator.
>How-To-Repeat:
	cd /dev
	rm ch0
	./MAKEDEV ch0
>Fix:

	Changer devices should have the same permissions as tape
	drives; so apply the following patch.

 As this is 4.x specific which is now EoL'd, I suspect this should be
 closed.
