device-table.pl: devices nodes are simple files

Hi! Just before I start, two notes:
- I may be missing something.
- I don't speak perl :-)

On trying device-table.pl I found that instead of device nodes I got simple 
files as output.

I have tried running as a normal user and as root, in both cases with and 
without fakeroot (even if it should not be necessary while using root).

So I decided to take a look to the script. I found that running a line like 
device-table.pl::120 with fakeroot will create simple files, while running 
them as root they were proper device nodes.

I then commented out lines [41-43] and 45. This time the script worked. Of 
course, I ran it as root.

[further reading the script]

And reading further I found the --no-fakeroot option. Also works as expected. 
I can make patches for the documentation to show this option.

Kind regard, Lisandro.
