As long as it's feasible I will continue patching the systemd crap out
of udev. 
The worst part always was and still is the man pages as one cannot
re-use previous patches on them. Whatever systemd maniacs are doing
there, it's the most time consuming part of the patching. 
The fun part is, it's still quite easy to get udev standalone without
anything being related to systemd (with the exception of the systemd
unit files which still can be used with my ebuilds).
