I have serious problems with udev myself; default instal would not create half of the devices half of the time. I'm now at the point of disabling udev (append="UDEV_DISABLED=yes"). It still barks on startup about files it cannot remove because of RO filesystem. Anyway, other issue. So I'm back to statuc device files, and I previously had event0 .. event3. I have created the other ones til 31, and indeed pbbuttonsd opens them all. But event4 ... event31 all report ENODEV. I'm running 2.6.15. I might trz more recent, do you know a version that does compile? I originally tried compiling 2.6.15-git6, but that didn't compile.
