o Modify format of /etc/fbtab to accept glob matching patterns for
target devices, not just individual devices and directories. This permits activities such as: ttyv0 0600 /dev/dsp* Whereas previously that was not supported. This change is backwards-compatible, except where device names included globbing characters, which is not the case for any devices listed in MAKEDEV.
