Uh... so we can not have a static dev fs? Wasn't that the whole argument against bumping the kernel version required for glibc too high? Or has the situation changed enough with the new udev to revisit that issue?

Before http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=initscripts.git;a=commitdiff;h=623e3fac060b0f4b32c0ec767d76ef57f5040ed1 it wasn't possible anyway, you just got an empty ramfs in /dev. Since then, you could theoretically have your static nodes in /lib/udev/devices, run pacman -Rd udev (initscripts depend on it) and they would be copied over to /dev on startup. I doubt anyone even tried to do that.

It will still work, it will simply try to start udev, fail and use the static /dev. I just don't see a point in having a code path here which we don't support at all.
