Sorry Mike, I forgot to paste it in, and its not my bug orininally, but 
I might be the only person interested in it at the moment ;)

--------- 

This isn't quite the same thing, but its a problem where "udev vc" takes on a life of it's own, eating up cpu and process slots, etc. I've emailed Greg KH from the kernel list about it and it appears to be something happening more and more. Not really related to the problem at heart in not having device entries, but one you *might* have with a little more bad luck after this one is fixed. The good news is that I've a workaround in case you get the problem in the bug.
