Because this doesn't appear to be that well known, it appears that
Gentoo is stopping development of eudev:
https://www.gentoo.org/support/news-items/2021-08-24-eudev-retirement.html
Interestingly the reason they're no longer using eudev is that systemd
can be built with musl "using patches from OpenEmbedded". These are
the patches we guard with the warning "Using systemd with musl is not
recommended since it is not supported upstream and some patches are
known to be problematic" so I was initially quite worried, but it now
appears that Alpine/Devuan/some Gentoo developers are rebooting eudev:
https://github.com/eudev-project/
We should keep an eye out on this and be prepared to switch when they
start making new releases.
