  My system worked just fine before HAL was introduced, thank you.  I
always had sys-apps/hal and sys-apps/dbus in /etc/portage/package.mask
and my system continued to work just fine, thank you.  Given the great
HAL fiasco, the fact that HAL has been incorporated into udev is yet one
more reason for dropping udev <G>.
