Well, it works fine if one doesn't have consolekit installed (I don't
where I use this package). I'm also mostly interested in systemd, udev
only comes as an extra. In general I don't think one can expect packages
from backports to work in all combinations (though udev is probably more
problematic by being installed by default).

Anyway, Michael Biebl prepared a backport of consolekit that should work
with the newer udev from systemd 204.
