My system broke with udev-174-1.  I have rules renaming eth* according
to their MACs for consistency, guarding against dependency on
order-of-detection, plus rules to customize a wlan running on an USB
device.  These rules didn't run.

Basically, there is one rule file[1] calling out to a number of local
"simple" rules.  These in turn are very short, containing only (LOCAL_)
"RUN"/"NAME" commands.  The main rule assembles a name out of subsystem,
addresses, interfaces etc.  This name points into a separate directory
"/etc/udev-local" where the appropriate one- or two liners live, and
there's a logging rule telling me what file names to use if there's
anything missing.  All this is less complex than eg. udisks and relies
only on udevd.  Are rules in /etc/udev ever called in the new version?
Do I need some compatibility to make this happen?

I didn't have the old udev package to downgrade to, but a backup from
where the old binaries and lib/udev stuff could be restored.  Otherwise
I couldn't even post this.
