FWIW In the udev 058 announcement, Greg said:
"Note, if you are running a kernel newer than 2.6.12-rc4 (including the -mm releases) and you have any custom udev rules, you MUST upgrade to the latest version to allow udev to work properly. This change happened because of a previously-unrealized reliance in libsysfs on the presence of a useless sysfs file that has recently been removed. Hopefully the libsysfs people will be releasing a new version shortly with this change in it for those packages who rely on it."
Just a reminder because I bet many people will get caught out by this!
