Sebastian Dröge has filed a bug about this, I've subscribed you to it
and forwarded your mail to it.

Ok, that's a little bit odd ... this could be related to something else
that got updated?  These are brought up by udev rules, and that stuff
should not have changed.

Heh, for most people it seems.  I'm getting claims that upstart halves
the boot speed just from this change alone.

I'm convinced now that all we need is a package that claims, in its
description, to speed up the boot process and application load times and
most people will claim that it works and defend it with their teeth.

Then all people need say is "install placebo" and your system will be
faster.
