Not being terribly inclined to set up an IRC client, were there any
issues with the patch itself?  Or does he just not like the idea at all
for some reason?  (Er, Kay?  Maybe I should ask you directly.  :-) )

However, I did get another suggestion from one of the guys there.

Automake supports includes, so it would be good to break up Makefile.am into several modules. That way it would be easy to include them based on condissionals.

I have started breaking things apart, but if you want, I can send you
the patch as I have it so far and we can collaborate on it. :-)

I'm interested in this too. However, I'm not sure what you are referring to when you mention modules. Do you mean the automake instruction 'include'?

The problem with udev as it's currently embedded in systemd is that the udev programs require several systemd .c utility programs, although they all build without the problematic libraries required by systemd (intltool, d-bus, etc). These object files could be combined into each of the udev programs without problems, but I'm having a problem understanding the concept of what is acceptable.

AFAICT, there still needs to be a change to configure.ac to optionally avoid all the extras that systemd needs. That seems to be where to start, but we need support from upstream to get these changes into the main distribution.
