Binary package hint: udev

In natty alpha-2 EC2 testing, I found several instances unreachable via ssh, that were "fixed" with a reboot.

I launched 182 instances across 4 regions. 87 of those were were i386 instances. 7 exhibited this behavior.
All 7 that showed the error were i386 and m1.small. So, its fairly rare.

Of the 182 instances, only the 7 that failed had lines like this in their console log:

| udevd[191]: bind failed: Address already in use
| udevd[191]: error binding control socket, seems udevd is already running
