If you hadn't asked, it could have been a disaster. Murphy's law you know. ;-) Exactly... ;) Also, to correct the above - I did do one other thing, but didn't see it until I went to emerge something else... When I emerged another app after updating udev, after the successful emerge there was a warning about some preserved libs fro the old udev, and it told me to (and so I did): emerge @preserved-rebuild to rebuild lvm2... Thanks again... :) I'm just about done updating everything else that had gotten backed up by my holding off on doing anything about udev...
