This really looks like an excuse for an autoconfiscation bug.
I have been maintaining an udev package for over four years and I never
dreamt of rebuilding it with a different value of udev_root just for
testing.
It's much easier to set $UDEV_ROOT when debugging instead of forcing
every package maintainer to set $prefix.
