After checking why MAKEDEV wasn't creating the devices on stage1, I noticed that the ebuild is calling the seed stage3 MAKEDEV and not the one just installed.
Until we update the seed stage3 to include the new version, calling the new one will fail because there is no /etc/makedev.d in the unpacked stage3 seed. Still, I suggest applying the following because we want to call the installed binary and not the one in the seed stage.

-               MAKEDEV -d "${ROOT}"/dev console hda input ptmx std sd tty
+               "${ROOT}"/sbin/MAKEDEV -d "${ROOT}"/dev console hda input ptmx std sd tty

if MAKEDEV were still a shell script, then maybe.  but it's a compiled program which wont fly in many situations such as cross-compiling.

build a new seed stage that has MAKEDEV in it and the issue "goes away".
