This config does not pull in systemd (LINGUAS removed for clarity)

I think your problem is USE="gudev", which on my system is used by
sys-fs/udev and virtual/udev. Yours will be different (equery hasuse
only lists USE for installed apps).

most likely is that you have a mismatch between USE for virtual/udev and
sys-fs/eudev. Remember all the pain we had to go through a while back to
discover they must match exactly? Very easy to miss that, especially as
portage doesn't help detect mismatches.
