Well...I'd only semi-expect that, because raid does not appear in the
autoconf device tree.  (I've sometimes wondered why we don't have a
pseudo-bus for pseudo-devices to attach to, to bring them into the
autoconf tree.  One advantage would be that things like this would come
for free.  I did a pseudo-bus at one point for 1.4T; it seemed to
require per-port fiddling, and I pretty much dropped it.)
