hoi :)
I'm using udev and an initramfs generated by initramfs-tools 0.40.
I don't really know what the initramfs does exactly but when
/etc/init.d/udev gets executed it complains about already existing
/dev/.udev and /dev/.udevdb and exits (thanks to set -e) without calling
udevsynthesize.
Thus my system was rendered more or less useless after the udev upgrade.
Reverting to udev 0.74-3 or applying the following patch makes my system
boot correctly again.

This may well be the wrong fix as I'm not at all familiar with initramfs-tools
yet.
