Why do you need this code in libudev?
SYMLINK+="disk/by-uuid/$env{ID_FS_UUID_ENC}"
It seems that everything what we need is to generate proper
$ID_FS_UUID* by vol_id (or in future by blkid --low-probe). We also
need to read the by-uuid/ directory in mount(8) (and maybe in HAL),
so it makes sense to add/move this code to libblkid. Right?

I'm not sure if we want to link fsck, mount, ... against libudev.
