Just discovered that this morning! Had made the assumption it was automatically enabled, but only clued onto it when I noticed udevmonitor wasn't giving only UEVENT output, not UDEV output. Should have been obvious, but I kept barking up the wrong tree!
So, turning out to be a good chance to learn how the lower levels of a linux system work and managed to learn exactly how udev works while stumbling on this one.
