Well, we're beginning to exhaust whatever "expertise" I have in 
trying to get udev and your compiled kernel working.  

I suppose another approach would be to see if you can re-install 
your "dev-" package but I don't know if that was removed from FC3T1 
for a specific reason in yesterday's updates or if it was just a 
"left-hand/right-hand" oversight.  

If someone can shed any more light here, please feel free to jump 
in....
