Yes, I have some udev rules that run at system boot, but the only thing 
I do is:

/sbin/udevd --daemon
/sbin/udevadm trigger --type=subsystems --action=add
/sbin/udevadm trigger --type=devices --action=add
/sbin/udevadm settle

Udev runs normally and returns no errors or warnings and dmesg shows 
nothing weird.

So, you think this may be a problem with my udev rules or a udev bug?

I'm using udev version 182.
