Hi John,

Right -- that issue was reported here a few weeks ago:

  [Crash-utility] [PATH] crash: Fix "dev -d" for recent kernels
  https://www.redhat.com/archives/crash-utility/2013-March/msg00076.html

I've got the fix queued for crash-6.1.5, which I hope to release 
today or tomorrow.

Thanks,
  Dave
