Don't mask anything, just make sure that systemd (both virtual/ and
sys-apps/) is not on package.keywords. Then uninstall virtual/udev,
downgrade systemd (just "emerge sys-apps/systemd") and then emerge
again virtual/udev. The correct version should be emerged.
Nothing in the tree (AFAICS) depends on >=virtual/udev-206, so it shoud be fine.
