Well, we know how to create (and to avoid) the problem. Since the original patch
adversely affects existing user space, it could be argued that it is a
regression, but I see that there is a counter argument that the udev rule that
triggers the problem is quite simply a bad rule.

I'll leave to those more closely concerned that rule on that.

Thanks

Chris
