What I want to accomplish here is to always be able to grab the latest
udev tarball and expect it to work, without having to wait weeks for
distro rule maintainers to update their external rules (and yet have
them slightly outdated) - but if that's too optimistic, not duplicating
the shipped udev rules is a step in the right direction :)

Sorry, but I'm gonna lean towards too optimistic. The only reason the
suse rules get updated at the time of udev release is because Kay
works on suse. The other rules work the same way ours do. Frugalware
and Slackware are the only other distros that submit their rules
changes upstream in a timely manner. But it's not like the udev
release is being delayed until that happens.

So, if you want to live on the bleeding edge, I'd suggest using the
default rules or the suse ones. Even if the LFS specific rules were in
the tarball, they wouldn't necessarily be current.
