That was it all right - somehow I missed this one when I was doing the
bugzilla search :-{

In my case (I am running FC3, not 4) I was able to back down from
udev-039-10.FC3.7 to udev-039-10.FC3.6 (which required removing an older
kernel which I wasn't using any more) and the problem went away.

Now here's the wierd part.  I'm still running udev-039-10.FC3.6 at the
office where this occurred first, and last did any RPM updates about 3
weeks
before the problem suddenly started happening... I'll upgrade to a later
kernel and see if that helps (while not upgrading the udev package)...

Thanks a big bunch,
