Well, I have udev-mount running:

rc-update -s -v | grep udev
                 udev |                                        sysinit
           udev-mount |                                        sysinit

and do not have CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT enabled.  devpts is created fine and I 
have no problems booting:

mount | grep devpts
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,gid=5,mode=620)


You may want to try the same in case it works?
