2.6.15 should work with older udev.
initramfs-tools will depend on the version of udev that is chosen for
volatile, we have supported different version of it,
so that is fixable.
klibc is easy to backport.
last i heard that busybox doen't build on sarge glibc? is that still true?
that would rule out initramfs-tools unless there is known fix for that.
yaird has the bigger perl dependendency, but that is said to be working
with the sarge modules.
