Maybe a hardware failure or try previous version (0.68), hope you have a binary package of it if you can't emerge it again. Useful sometimes. Boot with a LiveCD (gentoo) and re-emerge udev-0.68-rX or just install a binary package of it. If emerge/portage isn't working unpack it at / (root) dir, ignore warning about extra data at the end of archive. HTH.Rumen
