In order to better understand the issue, I added an 'x' on the she-bang line of
both udev and eudev in /etc/init.d/, so that they read

     #!/bin/sh -ex

However, the output remains the same, both on screen and in dmesg:

[    1.029490] Run /init as init process
[    1.029543]   with arguments:
[    1.029545]     /init
[    1.029547]   with environment:
[    1.029548]     HOME=/
[    1.029549]     TERM=linux
[    1.064359] udevd[221]: starting version 3.2.14
[    2.096511] random: crng init done
[    2.098060] udevd[222]: starting eudev-3.2.14

How come command lines are not shown?
