OK, good.

Ah!  A misc-device!  :-)

OK, so I *suspect* the SUBSYSTEM here will be either "misc", or
something else entirely.  Have to get the output from the "udevadm info
--attribute-walk" though.  And that's really critical at this point; see
my last reply to Bruce for why...

Because newer versions of udevd pre-fork some child processes to handle
uevents -- there was a bunch of discussion a few udev versions ago about
which was faster, this or making it threaded.  This seemed to be.
