Keep in mind we are releasing an ascii alpha, not a stable version. With
this we are able to test and figure out if there are any blockers. udev
is a part of systemd and it will cause problems in the long run. To me
it also seems ridiculous to run a very old version of udev (before the
systemd coup I believe) in ascii - where you are supposed to get
current-date software.
