Given the noises upstream were making when they originally announced the
systemd/udev source merge about the ability to still build and install udev
standalone this did somewhat surprise me.  Maybe I was just too optimistic
or naive? :-(

That sounds good; from the scale of the changes that were being discussed
a week or so ago, I think maintaining a patch of that size would be
fraught with maintenance headaches.  If the patch is just adding a
standalone Makefile, it should be much easier to handle as there won't
be any merge conflicts or the like.
