According to udev(7) on this RHEL5.4 machine (udev-095-14.21.el5),
RESULT can be matched against the output of the last PROGRAM call and
$result or %c can be use in substitutions.  Still, the idea of reading
both the serial number and the port number from the logger would allow
me to get by with a single udev rule along the lines of what you
wrote.

Thanks much for your input.  Looks like exactly what I needed.
