That's very strange, given this commit included in -176:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=commitdiff;h=220893b3cbdbf8932f95c44811b169a8f0d33939

(see udev-node.c), which removes all the mknod() calls.  If you don't
have a devtmpfs mounted at /dev (but rather just a tmpfs), I don't see
how anything will work anymore.  :-)

Did you edit the udev script to use devtmpfs instead of tmpfs, possibly?
