Okay, those two changes are done and the new recipe installed and it 
works for me...

50-udev-default.rules still references 'console' group a bunch, and I 
get messages about no console group existing; I didn't find any other 
rules from non-Udev that referenced 'console'.

Udev is still trying and failing to delete /System/Kernel/Objects 
repeatedly (according to log-messages on the console, while booting and 
while shutting down, IIRC.)

A note: I've been using something like

Compile -n Udev -e 115.2 
http://hisham.gobolinux.org/Udev--115--recipe.tar.bz2

so that I can revert to any version I want easily.  Revisions don't 
normally do that... being able to revert here is more important when 
it's distro-specific unstableness (as I just had to, last udev recipe :)
