cannot open cuad* with a shared lock in todays kernel

I have two kernels, one build from 3/16 and one from this morning 3/18 built
with the exact same kernel config.

If I boot the 3/16 kernel, I can open /dev/cuad0, if I boot
the 3/18 kernel...

$ ls -l /dev/cuad0
crw-------  1 root  wheel   13,  64 Mar 18 09:19 /dev/cuad0

$ whoami
root

$ ktrace minicom
minicom: cannot open /dev/cuad0: Permission denied

$ kdump -f ktrace.out

0x18 appears to be O_SHLOCK | O_APPEND.

A simple .c program with O_SHLOCK | O_APPEND on cuad0 returns 
"operation not permitted"
