Maybe this is true for a downgrade, but not normally:
mingdao@workstation ~ $ eshowkw udev
Keywords for sys-fs/udev:
| | u |
| a a p s | n |
| l m h i m m p s p | u s | r
| p d a p a 6 i p c 3 a x | s l | e
| h 6 r p 6 8 p p 6 9 s r 8 | e o | p

And, yes, this udev mask is used on 8 Gentoo boxen on this LAN.
