That was exactly my moan :)

I'm not sure that creating an empty version of the net generator rule file
works, either: I'm not sure if udev replaces files named $FOO in /lib/udev
with files of the same name in /etc/udev/rules.d. NEWS says:

> It does not matter in which directory a rule file lives, all files are
> sorted in lexical order.

which could go either way.
