I had in fact read udev's NEWS and acted accordingly, i.e. changed
the --libexecdir= configure line, installed libkmod, etc. (I was
already up to date in respect of devtmpfs and /run). I don't think
my booting problem lay with udev, but rather with systemd, whose
package contains no docs pertaining to configuring/installing or
changes from the previous version.
