Hmm, not really was I was asking for in the first place. But I guess
I'll have to deal with your decision then to drop support for this

Still I wonder why udevd is looking for "/run/udev". Shouldn't this
be /var/run/udev ? Looks to me like udevd is configured with a wrong
prefix for the run directory.
