Looking through /sbin/rc, gentoo will disable udev if any of the
following are true:
1. RC_DEVICES is set to "devfs".
2. The kernel command line contains "noudev".
3. The kernel version is less than 2.6.0.
4. /sbin/udev does not exist or is not an executable file
5. The file /dev/.devfsd exists.
Since the first 3 definitely do not apply, and you seem to have
emerged udev, my guess is you probably need to remove /dev/.devfsd to
enable udev.

THANK YOU!!!!
#5 was the problem. Could not remove it with devfs in use, so booted to
the mode where
neither devfs nor udev were used, then deleted it.
The only other issue so for was X wouldn't start. Xorg.0.log showed
/dev/mouse not
found. Had to "ln -s /dev/input/mice /dev/mouse" and presto.
Onward to 2.6.13...
Again,
Thank you!
