I'm attaching the new init script I wrote for the debian package[1], in
the hope it will be useful to other distributions (again, please do not
just distribute it with the package, it will do not good to debian users).

I introduced a new config file which lists symlinks, directories and
devices which cannot be created by udev (a notable example being
/dev/ppp and probably the tun/tap devices).

The script will also bind-mount the old /dev somewhere else, to allow
MAKEDEV to still update it. (I think this will be needed at least until
udev will continue to be an optional component of the distribution.)


[1] which is currently waiting to be approved by the ftpmasters before
entering the distribution, FYI.
