One minor note is that the default filesystem is the mini-IMFS which
is ONLY supports device nodes and directories.  So if you stick
with that filesystem as the root one in your application, you have
to create two device nodes per device.

Define CONFIGURE_USE_IMFS_AS_BASE_FILESYSTEM
before including confdefs.h to get the full IMFS with symlinks.
