It can? Hmmm... have to check it again. I think Gentoo folks have
avoided that dbus thing and they even forked lately udev -> eudev.
And that eudev does not need need /usr to be mounted before it starts.

True.
mdev should be able to do everything that udev does.
Maybe even run scripts when mdev detect plugin event from kernel (not
sure, have not checked).
But what really annoys me is that some newer Gnome packages include udev
as hard dependency.
So I end up installing udev anyway even if I would have just liked to
use simple mdev.
