I'm not sure right now what the best migration path would be since udev 
is also progressing forward ... I migrated by keywording eudev-0 and 
I've been upgrading from there.  I also added USE=openrc globally.  If I 
recall, I got a blocker with udev, unmerged it and then merge eudev. 
But as of recently you might also get a blocker with kmod.

Having said that, the migration was the worst part.  After that I was fine.
