O boy, walking you through each specific line/edit would be quite a task. I 
think most of the diff contents comes from simple reformatting. The history 
entry is my attempt to explain all relevant edits, please ask about parts 
that seem obscure.

I did test the spell many times on my own box, and it works perfectly. Apart 
from the version bump and a few "external" edits (e.g. removing obsoleted 
config file vars from udev.conf and adding evaluate_retval calls in coldplug 
script), everything else is just streamlining the internal spell workings.

For instance, in both BUILD and INSTALL there were not one but three make 
[install] commands. Two of these are redundant: there were separate commands 
for the basic compilation and extra targets, when you can actually do it all 
in one. What I did for these is save the chosen build targets in _EXTRAS_TARG 
in CONFIGURE and append that to a single make [install] in BUILD and INSTALL.

I'm of course glad if you can test it on your box too.
