in my case, as an (earlier) adopter of nexus 7000 and running 4.x, 5.0, and 5.1 
code — i saw numerous cases where a supervisor switchover (during issu, for 
example) would cause the scheduler to eat itself, and in turn, cause 
control-plane protocols to drop.  most often, this was not a huge issue (more 
than some logs and small “blips”), but in the case of udld aggressive, i lost 
connectivity to the rest of the network, because udld was only showing down on 
the n7k side (not the far end).

lots of testing later — udld is only enabled in normal mode — if at all.  i 
agree that udld is more trouble than its worth unless specific corner cases are 
encountered.
