Ok!

First of all, let me note that I did NOT pretend I knew more about udev than 
ANYONE at all. In fact, I know very little. Too little. Almost nothing.

So, ok, since this a new bug, I'll start again from the beginning:

Here, both /dev/dvd and /dev/cdrom link to /dev/hdd

/dev/hdc is a CD ReWritter. /dev/hdd is a DVD Reader

[/usr/src/linux]$ sudo cdrom_id /dev/hdc
ID_CDROM=1
ID_CDROM_CD_R=1
ID_CDROM_CD_RW=1
ID_CDROM_MRW=1
ID_CDROM_MRW_W=1
ID_CDROM_RAM=1
[/usr/src/linux]$ sudo cdrom_id /dev/hdd
ID_CDROM=1
ID_CDROM_DVD=1
ID_CDROM_MRW=1
ID_CDROM_MRW_W=1
ID_CDROM_RAM=1

I would expect /dev/cdrom to be hdc since it is a cdrom-only drive, so 
/dev/cdrom would be hdc and /dev/dvd would be hdd. udev scripts should notice 
this and link accordingly since it would have no sense for someone to install 
cdrom drive with the dvd and not pretend to use it (ok, not symlinking to 
/dev/dcrom doesn't mean not using it, but you get what I mean).
