OK, I upgraded and *nearly* got it completely right first time.
Nothing actually broke, but I was plagued by messages about "bad
message magic udevd_071" when booting up or shutting down. For the
record, I had tripped over two gotchas:
* I needed to run "make uninstall" in the udev-071 build tree before
installing udev-096. If you don't do that then something in the
old udev-071 installation gets triggered during the boot.
* I needed to disable hotplug. (I inserted "exit 0" at the top of
the bootscript.)
After fixing those two issues everything works perfectly.
