udev 182 from devel-udev-kmod is missing a patch that removes sd_is_mq
method, from source and header.  The reason is the method depends upon
some stuff not available with glibc 2.17, so without the patch there's
a build error.

See upstream patch:

https://github.com/gentoo/eudev/commit/3d6f228db94e8bfb81f3b163739250e9a578e819

And see the comment on gentoo regarding it:

https://github.com/gentoo/eudev/issues/41

I already have installed kmod 12:

% gaze versions kmod
Grimoire    Section  Spell  Grimoire Version  Installed Version
--------    -------  -----  ----------------  -----------------
before      kernels  kmod   12                12
test        kernels  kmod   5                 -

Got it from from devel-kmod.  Things work just fine with it.

However there's no way udev 182 works.

It just gets into an infinite reboot loop as described previously.
kmod seems not to be a problem at all, actually replacement of
module-init-tools seems to have been transparent...

I've read that it might be related to the lack of "CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y",
but I have it set on all my kernel versions.  What I do not have set
is "CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT".  I don't use initrd images at all, so I'm
wondering if this could be it...

Would you think this would be it?  If not, then I'm clueless...  I
haven't found anything on the web, other than rebuid your initrd
image, or use that config (which I already have)...

Thanks,
