On debian, *all* devices are supposed to be created by udev if udev is
installed (because /dev is a tmpfs).
I don't know why /dev/ppp is not being created on your system.

This is a special-case, links.conf is supposed to be used *only* to
create some symlinks and directories. I do not know enough about SE
Linux to tell how it should be integrated with this.

/etc/init.d/modutils is 2.4.x stuff.

No, it will not: udev is run S04 and module-init-tools at S20 of rcS.d.
