Just wanted to chime in that I have the exact same problem with udevd killing lvm vgscan.
udevd[139]: timeout: killing 'watershed sh -c '/sbin/lvm vgscan; /sbin/lvm vgchange -a y''

What does this imply? Can I just ignore it till you folks fix it ASAP?

BTW: It has been a real fun upgrade experience to oneiric: First bitten by bug#858122 on my desktop. Then now, my "KVM server" (the host of several guests) got bitten badly by the same bug (only on the server it hung hard), and then apparently this one.
