build dependencies should not count. =)

The bare udev shouldn't be that huge, then you start look at the glib
integration and such and it might get a bit more than you'd like.

Forking udev and making sure it stays as lean as possible isn't that bad.

Making mdev a bit richer and enjoy the speed advantage of busybox over
stand alone shells could be another option.

Most of the perceived speed in non-shell init systems is due not having
to spawn as many processes. A full busybox wouldn't spawn many processes.

Last time I looked at systemd it was anything that lean.

Obviously you can say that if you already need dbus and glib and ...
${systemd_deplist} it doesn't count.

Likewise if you are already using busybox it comes with a quite rich shell.

Most depends on what you consider embedded.
