OK - it looks like what happens is udev creates the node with  
permission in the conf file, and then pam_console assigns the  
permissions to the the device (if it is configured to do so)

That's just at a glance from documentation - so /etc/security/ 
console.perms is the right place to configure permisive permissions,  
while udev is for configuring absolute permissions when pam_console  
isn't there to make them permissive for the console user.

I think.

I'll read more after the weekend.
