Ran into the same problem, with my sister's PC. Which I had updated from
remote, so I did not see the elogs. I do not think it is correct
behaviour to continue building udev although the system wouldn't boot
with that kernel option missing. I would expect the udev ebuild to check
the running kernel for that option, and refuse to build until it has it
set. Or until building is forced by some USE flag or an environment
variable.

Had these things not been handled better in the past?
