Last time I checked mdev it had far too little functionality as to be 
usable in my system.

Actually I use it just for initial population of /dev ("mdev -s").

BTW, yestarday I moved to kernel 2.6.20 and noticed that mdev currently 
relies in deprecated sysfs entries (if you turn off SYSFS_DEPRECATED in 
the kernel build, mdev -s fails to create many devices, most notably 
/dev/ttyS0).
