Actually, these rules will require udev-098 or higher, which isn't in
the book yet -- which means if I commit this change, we'll have to hold
off on building the udev-config tarball until we update the udev
version.  (It's easy enough to skip generating the tarball and putting
it on belg, but we'd have to make sure nobody else does either, or we
get a broken set of rules.)  I think it'd be safer to wait until after
the udev version bump.  Unless you were going to do both at the same
time?  If so, feel free.

I think you can commit changes to the udev-config tarball without fear
of ruining the book. I specifically asked Bruce to do this a few weeks
ago. Now the way it works is that you personally have to spin a new
tarball, put it in downloads.linuxfromscratch.org, and update the LFS
book source to reference the new version. The render script just makes
symlinks in www.lfs.org/lfs/downloads to the true canonical file using
the udev-config version entity from the book. (At least this was the
plan. Belg seems to be crippled right now, so I can't check that
that's the case.)

So, feel free to make commits in udev-config so we can all see them.
If you don't know how to do the above steps, or lack privileges, let
me know. I think this will be much better than passing diffs back and
forth. And it "solved" the issue where the render script was
generating the tarball from the svn export and forcing the md5sum to
be fixed after the fact.
