to"..could you point me some directions? not even google showed me 
how...perhaps i'm not searching it right...

I do not know of any write-up on how to do. However, with the exception 
of a small patch to the configure script (which I just sent to the 
mailing list), cross compilation is no different than cross compiling 
any package that uses autotools.

I cross compile it for MiniMyth. MiniMyth uses a GAR based build system. 
The MiniMyth GAR package for udev can be found at 
<http://code.google.com/p/minimyth/source/browse/#svn/trunk/gar-minimyth/script/system/udev>.

As one can see from the package DEPENDS variable, there are several 
dependencies that need to be built. However, most are needed only by the 
extras. So, if you are not using any of the extras, then the dependency 
list much less.
