Any objections to turning on the udev use flag by default in the base
profile?

Yeah, can we just do it in the Linux profiles only somewhere?

If udev doesn't work on the system, the flag should be masked like it's
already on BSD. Is there some place where udev works, but shouldn't be
on by default?

or rather mask the 'udev' use flag on profiles not supporting it

wouldnt it make more sense to invert the logic ?  udev only works on linux, so 
mask it everywhere by default and unmask it for linux profiles.

What matters is the amount of entries. Do we have more linux than other
profiles?

no, we dont.  stacked profiles means theres 1 linux base.
