further debugging shows at least udev->openct is missing an event:
udev events on 2.6.20.2 (without rsdl):
( "$ACTION - $DEVICE - $DEVNAME - $PRODUCT - $$ - $PPID")
add - /proc/bus/usb/002/016 -  - 8e6/3438/100 - 6071 - 6065
add -  - /dev/usbdev2.16_ep02 -  - 6116 - 6113
add -  - /dev/usbdev2.16_ep82 -  - 6118 - 6114
add -  - /dev/usbdev2.16_ep81 -  - 6120 - 6115

udev events on 2.6.20.2 (with rsdl): 
( "$ACTION - $DEVICE - $DEVNAME - $PRODUCT - $$ - $PPID")
add -  - /dev/usbdev2.8_ep02 -  - 5287 - 5286
add -  - /dev/usbdev2.8_ep82 -  - 5290 - 5288
add -  - /dev/usbdev2.8_ep81 -  - 5291 - 5289

the /proc event is missing. in both cases /proc/ was mounted.

syslog with udev on debugging (only the /proc event from the kernel w/o
rsdl):

there is something similar in syslog (on the rsdl kernel):
Mar 15 11:24:32 localhost udevd[2607]: udev_event_run: seq 2717 forked, pid
[5284], 'add' 'usb', 0 seconds old
Mar 15 11:24:32 localhost udevd-event[5284]: wait_for_sysfs:

Mar 15 11:24:32 localhost udevd[2607]: udev_done: seq 2717, pid [5284] exit

so I guess it might be a udev bug, as it wait_for_sysfs in both cases,
but doesn't trigger openct if the kernel has rsdl. as the hardware is the
same and the openct rules for udev didn't change.

Thanks, I'm taking the issue to the hotplug mailing list.
