Dunno.  After making 021:

	udev-021> find . -type f | xargs grep -li udevtest
	./ChangeLog
	./udev.spec
	./Makefile
	./udevtest.o

There seems to be no doc, no man, and no builtin "usage"
for udevtest, and my distribution (Gentoo) does not install it.

To the user, it's inscrutable:
	udev-021> ./udevtest -h       
	udev-021> ./udevtest --help
	udev-021> ./udevtest -v
	udev-021> ./udevtest --version
	udev-021> ./udevtest
	udev-021> ./udevtest xyz                          
	udev-021>

I'll look at the code and see if I can figure out what it does.

Thanks,

Bob
