Yes, it's still true, there is no reason to change away from sys-fs/udev except for sys-libs/musl use, and even then, I'd be happy to accept musl compability patches for sys-fs/udev's ebuild, but the sys-libs/musl maintainer decided to put his work to sys-fs/eudev instead. So unless some user does the work for him... I wouldn't worry about it at all, there is no way *sys-fs/udev ebuild* will ever need systemd. There might be a news item later, with instructions on moving to something else, but that's not something we are even planning at the moment, so sys-fs/udev is still the de facto proper upstream /dev manager.
