I have a new udev which can produce debug output and am carrying out various furthrer experiments to try to reproduce the problem. The new udev technically has a new feature (a new command line option to suppress some of its use of syslog) so I will apply for a freeze exception. Aurelien Naldi has provided me with a debug log from a failed boot and I'm trying to understand what happened in his case. * automated-testing: I made timeouts work but since then my testbed machine has been busy with my attempts to reproduce 75681.
