Ah, I see. The glibc assumes that a device number could be 64 bit rather 
than 32 bit. So "| ((unsigned int) (__dev >> 32) & ~0xfff)" is 
meaningful. If it is 32 bit, this part is quite nonsense, so I thought 
there was something wrong here.

I will incorporate gnu_dev_major in the current glibc.

Thanks,
Okuji
