Bug#1042082: Please take over udev SysV init script

Dear Matthew and Sysvinit maintainers,

may I suggest to add this script to initscripts package(sysvinit:src)
instead of o-s-s?
A system without udev is not very common after all and the vast
majority of scripts strictly needed to boot and shutdown the system
are shipped there.

Lorenzo
