If anyone is interested, the reason I couldn't boot 2.6.15 wasn't udev 
-- it was initramfs-tools. Several separate bugs!

* the md module wasn't being loaded because it'd been renamed to md-mod, 
and even when that was fixed md-mod wasn't being loaded because modprobe 
doesn't put out the insmod line we'd expect from the modprobe documentation.

* mdrun attempts to create an /dev/md/0. I gave up and replaced mdrun 
with "mkdir /dev/md; mdadm --scan --auto".

<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug55580> for full details.

And I'm pleased to report that udev properly creates the symlinks from 
/dev/mdN to /dev/md/N -- mdrun's symlinking is not required.
