I think a related change was made to the Fedora udev scripts at about the
same time.

I definitely noticed a change. One day I went to copy some stuff to floppy
and I couldn't mount the floppy drive. I eventually found out what needed
to be done, so it isn't a big deal for me anymore. But my machines with
floppy drives still don't get /dev/floppy created unless I run modprobe floppy.
