Yes, that's my suspicion too.  For starters, on FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE , I 
do this:


$ grep bacula /etc/group
operator:*:5:root,dan,bacula
bacula:*:910:dan

[dan@ngaio:~] $ ls -l /dev/nsa0
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  6 Jan  1  1970 /dev/nsa0 -> nsa0.0

[dan@ngaio:~] $ ls -l /dev/nsa0.0
crw-rw----  1 root  operator    0, 110 Sep  7 02:00 /dev/nsa0.0
[dan@ngaio:~] $
