As you mention dist-upgrade I wonder: did you configure APT to upgrade
all packages to the version in wheezy-backports? By default you should
only get packages from there if you explicitly specify that you want to
use the backports distribution for it.

So udev should not get upgraded to 204-7~bpo70+1 by default.
