Subject: Newer udev not performing %-substitutions on OWNER and GROUP

I have a udev rule that sets the ownership of a device node based on the 
result of a PROGRAM run, e.g.:

	..., PROGRAM="echo 1000", OWNER="%c"

This works in Fedora 10 (udev-127) and Ubuntu 8.10 (udev-124) but not in 
Fedora Rawhide (udev-141) or Ubuntu 9.04 (udev-141).  Further 
investigation reveals that on the affected systems, substitutions appear 
not to be working at all for OWNER and GROUP keys.  (I tried %c, %m, %M, 
%n, and $result.)  Replacing OWNER="%c" with OWNER="1000" works for me, 
as does SYMLINK+="%c", so the rule is being properly executed.

Is this syntax still supported for OWNER and GROUP?  udev(7) claims that 
it is.
