Please let's keep it opened, since terminating random processes as root is quite bad, doesn't seem to be just a hypothetical thing, and did happen twice on independent systems.
I don't have any insights as to how it can happen, though. Perhaps .. two udev upgrades? Perhaps rebooting (or not) between the previous udev update and the current one? That there is no pidfile pretty much stumps me.. I don't know. dpkg people, is there an explanation for this? s-s-d apparently tried tried to send a signal to a PID which wasn't running; this happened twice on two independent machines, so I don't think it can be a simple race between stating /proc/$pid/stat and calling kill().
